We report on measurements by the E864 experiment at the BNL-AGS of the yields of light nuclei in collisions of Au(197) with beam momentum of 11.5 A GeV/c on targets of Pb(208) and Pt(197). The yields are reported for nuclei with baryon number A=1 up to A=7, and typically cover a rapidity range from y(cm) to y(cm)+1 and a transverse momentum range of approximately 0.1 < p(T)/A < 0.5 GeV/c. We calculate coalescence scale factors B(A) from which we extract model dependent source dimensions and collective flow velocities. We also examine the dependences of the yields on baryon number, spin, and isospin of the produced nuclei.

Strangelet search and light nucleus production in relativistic Si + Pt and Au + Pt collisions

Phys.Rev.C 54 (1996) R15-R19, 1996.
Inspire Record 429741 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25801

A strangelet search in Si+Pt and Au+Pt collisions at alternating-gradient synchrotron (AGS) energies, using a focusing spectrometer, sensitive to mass per charge of 3-14 GeV/c2 was conducted during the 1992 and 1993 heavy ion runs at the AGS. The null results thereof are presented as upper limits on the invariant production cross section, in the range of 10−5-10−4 mb c3/GeV2, and model dependent sensitivity limits in the range of 10−7-10−5 per collision. Measurements of the production cross sections of several nonstrange nuclear systems, from p to Be7 and Li8, the background of the strangelet search, are also presented.

Composite particle production in relativistic Au + Pt, Si + Pt, and p + Pt collisions

The E886 collaboration Saito, N. ; Bassalleck, B. ; Burger, T. ; et al.

Inspire Record 383739 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25998

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.

Classical tests for statistical evaporation at 680 MeV Ar-40 + natural Ag

Inspire Record 433950 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.25739

Measurements of the partial linear momentum transfer and production cross sections for light charged particles are reported for the reaction 680 MeV Ar40+natAg. From examination of light charged particle invariant cross section maps and comparison of experimental angular distributions and energy spectra to a reaction kinematics simulation, an average value of 85% linear momentum transfer is deduced, with a spin range of (0–75)ħ. Integration over energy and angle yields single and coincident light charged particle production cross sections. © 1996 The American Physical Society.

We report the measurements on partial production cross sections of the multiple helium fragments emitted in the interactions of Si28 ions at 14.5A GeV in nuclear emulsion. Interaction mean free paths of the helium fragments have been investigated on the basis of helium multiplicity and size of the target nucleus as a function of the distance from their production points. Multiplicity scaling in the produced helium fragments is also observed.

Intranuclear cascade percolation approach for protons and light fragments production in neon niobium reactions at 400-MeV and 800-MeV per nucleon

Montarou, G. ; Marroncle, J. ; Alard, J.P. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.C 47 (1993) 2764-2781, 1993.
Inspire Record 362233 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26046

The results of intranuclear cascade calculations (ideal gas with two-body collisions and no mean field), complemented by a simple percolation procedure, are compared with experimental data on protons and light nuclear fragments (d, t, He3, and He4) measured in 400 and 800 MeV/nucleon Ne+Nb collisions using a large solid angle detector. The model reproduces quite well global experimental observables like nuclear fragment multiplicity distributions or production cross sections, and nuclear fragment to proton ratios. For rapidity distributions the best agreement occurs for peripheral reactions. Transverse momentum analysis confirms once again that the cascade, although being a microscopic approach, gives too small a collective flow, the best agreement being reached for Z=2 nuclear fragments. Nevertheless these comparisons are encouraging for further improvements of the model. Moreover, such an approach is easy to extend to any other models that could calculate the nucleon phase space distribution after the compression stage of the reaction, when light nuclear fragments emitted at large angles are constructed from percolation.

Spectra of p, d, and t from relativistic nuclear collisions

Sandoval, A. ; Gutbrod, H.H. ; Meyer, W.G. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.C 21 (1980) 1321-1343, 1980.
Inspire Record 147669 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.26366

Inclusive energy spectra of protons, deuterons, and tritons were measured with a telescope of silicon and germanium detectors with a detection range for proton energies up to 200 MeV. Fifteen sets of data were taken using projectiles ranging from protons to Ar40 on targets from Al27 to U238 at bombarding energies from 240 MeV/nucleon to 2.1 GeV/nucleon. Particular attention was paid to the absolute normalization of the cross sections. For three previously reported reactions, He fragment cross sections have been corrected and are presented. To facilitate a comparison with theory the sum of nucleonic charges emitted as protons plus composite particles was estimated and is presented as a function of fragment energy per nucleon in the interval from 15 to 200 MeV/nucleon. For low-energy fragments at forward angles the protons account for only 25% of the nucleonic charges. The equal mass Ar40 plus Ca systems were examined in the center of mass. Here at 0.4 GeV/nucleon Ar40 plus Ca the proton spectra appear to be nearly isotropic in the center of mass over the region measured. Comparisons of some data with firestreak, cascade, and fluid dynamics models indicate a failure of the first and a fair agreement with the latter two. In addition, associated fast charged particle multiplicities (where the particles had energies larger than 25 MeV/nucleon) and azimuthal correlations were measured with an 80 counter array of plastic scintillators. It was found that the associated multiplicities were a smooth function of the total kinetic energy of the projectile.

Alpha particle emission in the interaction of $^{12}$C with $^{59}$Co and $^{93}$Nb at incident energies of 300 and 400 MeV

Gadioli, E. ; Cavinato, M. ; Fabrici, E. ; et al.

Inspire Record 1389772 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.36165

The results of measured inclusive double differential cross section of α particles emitted in the interaction of 12C ions with 59Co and 93Nb at incident energies of 300 and 400 MeV are presented. The analysis of these data allows us to isolate the contributions of the different reaction mechanisms, thereby confirming previous conclusions of a comprehensive analysis of a large number of excitation function, forward recoil ranges and angular distributions of residues produced in the interaction of 12C with a target nucleus in the same mass range. In particular, the probabilities associated with α-particle reemission following incomplete fussion processes have been reaffirmed. Several refinements to the theoretical model proposed in earlier studies of the interaction of 12C with nuclei are presented.
