CHARACTERISTICS OF RELATIVISTIC CHARGED PARTICLES PRODUCED IN 24Mg–EMULSION INTERACTIONS AT 4.5A GeV/C

Abstract

The interactions of 4.5A GeV/c 24 Mg nuclei with emulsion have been studied. The multiplicity distributions of all the produced target protons from 24 Mg –emulsion interactions has been found to obey the KNO scaling behavior. The angular characteristics of the relativistic charged particles have been investigated and their dependence on the multiplicity of the relativistic shower particles has been studied. The results reveal that increasing the multiplicity of the shower particles, leads to a shift of the peak of the pseudorapidity distributions towards the lower values of the pseudorapidity and also to a decrease of the average pseudorapidity. The study of the rapidity dispersion of the relativistic charged particles shows that the clusterization effect is significant among the final state of the relativistic particles produced in the heavy-ion interactions. Azimuthal correlations in the angles of the relativistic charged particles have been investigated.
