Abstract
The dispersion parameter and rapidity gap distributions are used to st udy correlations among shower particles produced in C-12-Em collisions at 4.5 GeV/c. Clear evidence of clusterization is found. Each cluster is observed to decay into at least three charged particles and the na ture of clusterization is independent of the shower particles' multipl icity. The cluster size is found to be independent of the nature of pr ojectile, target as well as the energy of the projectile. Further, no evidence is found for the production of heavy fireball-type clusters.
