Abstract

It has become obvious that one crucial aspect in understanding high energy nuclear reactions is the fragmentation of colliding nuclei. The nuclear emulsion is a 4[Formula: see text] detector that makes it simple to identify and quantify the charges of projectile fragments. In this work, we study the multiplicity distribution and angle distributions of single, double charge projectile fragments, fast target protons (gray particle) as well as their correlation for the events produced in the interactions of [Formula: see text] with emulsion nuclei at 1[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]GeV. We also study the target-dependent angle distribution of gray particles. The results are compared with other experimental data as per availability. This analysis shows that multiplicity distributions have a remarkable link between the projectile and target fragmentation processes.
