Abstract
The azimuthal angular correlations of light charged particles and ligh t intermediate mass fragments emitted from the reaction Ar-36 + Au-197 at E/A = 50 MeV are found to be reducible to the angular distribution s of individual fragments. Thermal scaling is also observed in the coe fficients of the angular correlations. Furthermore, the observed scali ng with fragment mass seems to imply secondary emission from relativel y small (A approximate to 15-30) primary fragments.
