Abstract
Based on the method of Beckmann et al., a new quantitative method is p roposed for the study of multi-particle azimuthal correlations in rela tivistic heavy ion collisions. Multiparticle azimuthal correlations of nucleons for collisions of 1.2 A GeV Ar + KCl in the Bevelac streamer chamber are analyzed by this new method and Beckmann's. The experimen tal results are compared with the VUU model predictions for different nuclear equations of state. The incompressibility of nuclear matter ca n be estimated by the new method.
