Abstract

Stars produced in insensitive nuclear emulsions by 1.0-3.0 Bev protons have been classified into different groups depending on whether light fragments and/or fission fragments are emitted. Alpha particle spectra and angular distributions are presented for each of the various groups. The probability for light-fragment emission increases rapidly with increasing beam energy up to 2.0 Bev. The angular distribution of the light fragments is peaked forward but also shows a preference for emission at 90\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} to the beam. Fission events increase from \ensuremath{\sim}3% of the interactions with Ag and Br at 1.0 Bev to \ensuremath{\sim}11% at 3.0 Bev. Ranges and angular distributions are also given for the recoil and fission fragments.
