摘要:Attempt has been made to study the characteristics of secondary charged particles produced in 4.5 A GeV/c 28Si-nucleus interactions. The results reveal that the multiplicity correlations are not linear. These findings do not agree with those reported by several workers. However, these correlations may be reproduced quite well by second order polynomial. It is also observed that the dependence of mean normalized, RA and reduced multiplicity, RS on the multiplicity of different charged secondaries is linear up to a certain value and then acquire almost a constant value. Results also reveal that the kth root of central moment increases with the increase of and the values of normalized moments do not depend on the nature and energy of the projectiles. Finally, it is observed that the integral multiplicity distribution of heavily ionizing tracks provides a method for selecting the disintegration caused by the projectile due to different target nuclei of nuclear emulsion.
