Abstract
An analysis of projectile fragments has been performed using 40Ar-emulsion interactions at 1.8 A GeV. The interaction mean free path of 40Ar nuclei was obtained on the basis of 4600 events which enabled one to calculate the total inelastic cross section. Correlations between the multiplicity of different charged particles were studied extensively to get an insight into the reaction mechanism. The average number of interacting nucleons of the projectile was calculated and compared with results from other experiments. Events with projectile fragments were divided into various reaction channels and several parameters like average emission angle and target particle multiplicities were studied as a function of target mass in different reaction channels. The projectile fragmentation properties were found to be independent of the target for peripheral collisions.
