Recently, highly relativistic Au beams have become available at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. Inclusive production cross sections for composite particles, d, t, He3, and He4, in 11.5A GeV/c Au+Pt collisions have been measured using a beam line spectrometer. For comparison, composite particle production was also measured in Si+Pt and p+Pt collisions at similar beam momenta per nucleon (14.6A GeV/c and 12.9 GeV/c, respectively). The projectile dependence of the production cross section for each composite particle has been fitted to Aprojα. The parameter α can be described by a single function of the mass number and the momentum per nucleon of the produced particle. Additionally, the data are well described by momentum-space coalescence. Comparisons with similar analysis of Bevalac A+A data are made. The coalescence radii extracted from momentum-space coalescence fits are used to determine reaction volumes (‘‘source size’’) within the context of the Sato-Yazaki model.

DISTRIBUTIONS INTEGRATED WITH PHOTON SPECTRUM ARE NORMALIZED ON NUMBER OF EQUIVALENT PHOTONS.
The angular dependences of proton photoproduction from the nuclei 12 C, 63 Cu and 208 Pb irradiated by bremsstrahlung γ-quanta with maximum energy 4.5 GeV, both in the cumulative region (i.e. in the kinematical region in which the production of protons in the collision of γ-quanta of the given energy with the quasi-free nuclear nucleon is forbidden) and in the non-cumulative region, are investigated. The experimental data obtained are compared with the results of theoretical calculations of cumulative proton photoproduction according to the following models: the “quasi-two-body” scaling model, the low-nucleon correlation model, the fluctuon model and the cluster model.
