Abstract
Two-particle azimuthal correlations are studied in 4.2 GeV/c per nucleon dC, \ensuremath{\alpha}C, and CC collisions with a propane bubble chamber at JINR Dubna Synchrophasotron. It is found that the azimuthal correlations are different for different pairs of secondary particles, and that they also depend on the mass of the projectiles and the collision centrality. The majority of the observed characteristics can be accounted for by the kinematic correlations calculated from the model of independent nucleon-nucleon collisions. The only exception is the effect of close pairing of like particles considered to be due to the identical particle effect for pion pairs and to short-range strong interactions for proton pairs.
