Abstract
Transverse-momentum data of the projectile fragments are analysed to i dentify the presence of collective flow of nuclear matter in symmetric (O-16-CNO at 2.1A GeV and C-12-CNO at 4.5A GeV/c)d and asymetric (Mg- 24-AgBr at 4.5A GeV/c) heavy-ion interactions, adapting the method pro posed by Danielewicz and Odyniec. A comparison of the data with Monte- Carlo-simulated values gives a positive indication of collective flow in each case.
