Abstract
The properties of the relativistic helium fragments produced in interactions of 84Kr at 1.8 A GeV and 197Au at 10.7 A GeV in emulsion are investigated. The experimental results are compared with those obtained from various projectiles with emulsion collisions at different energies. It is found that the multiplicity distribution of helium projectile fragments (HPFs) is well described by the Koba–Nielsen–Olesen (KNO) scaling presentation. The second Mueller moment f2 of the HPF multiplicity distribution is independent of the projectile energy for the same projectile, but it is dependent on the projectile mass number. The value of f2 increases with the increase of projectile mass number Ap. The negative value of f2, when Ap < 69, means that the emission of HPFs is anticorrelated, but positive value of f2, when Ap > 69, refers to that the emission of HPFs is correlated. The non-zero f2 moment in this experiment implies the strong correlation existing between the HPFs.
