Abstract

The relativistic cascade code arc is applied to data from the experiment E814 covering projectile rapidities in Si+Pb collisions at 14.6 GeV/c per nucleon. The result is a quantitative theoretical description of the entire range of the experimental rapidity spectrum, as well as of the number and transverse energy dependence of ``punchthrough'' protons. This plus additional detailed comparisions of transverse mass distributions strongly suggest the cascade approach can be highly useful for understanding energetic ion collisions.
