M. Elnadi et al., ON SLOW-PARTICLE PRODUCTION IN 200A GEV O-16-EMULSION INTERACTIONS, Nuovo cimento della Società Italiana di Fisica. A. Nuclei, particles and fields, 108(1), 1995, pp. 87-96
The multiplicity distributions and the correlations of different types
of slow particles produced in 200A GeV oxygen-induced interactions wi
th emulsion nuclei are presented. The experimental distributions are s
tudied within the framework of the generalized Andersson-Otterlund-Ste
nlund (AOS) model for nucleus-nucleus interactions. The generalized (A
OS) model fails to describe the present experimental data. Also a syst
ematic comparison using the calculations of VENUS model is made. The g
rey-particles multiplicity is successfully reproduced by the theoretic
al multistring model VENUS, while the model is inadequate for explaini
ng the distribution of black particles.
