Heavy ion reactions at 75–100 MeV/nucleon

Energy and momentum component distributions of singly and doubly charged particles in¹⁶O-emulsion nucleus interactions at 75–100 MeV/n are presented. The parallel momentum distributions show larger shifts than at 2 GeV/n, indicating emission from systems with mean velocities ≈0.06 c relative to the parent nuclei. Particles with intermediate rapidities have, on the average, larger transverse momenta than particles with large rapidities. The charged particle multiplicity in peripheral collisions is the same at 0.1, 0.2 and 2 GeV/n, while the difference in multiplicity for central collisions is pronounced.
