    Abstract

    Multiplicity distributions of slow singly charged target fragments from O-16 induced reactions on C, Cu, Ag and Au are studied at 60 and 200 A GeV. The distributions from the two energies are essentially the same. Energy and angular distributions for slow protons are revealing the important role of cascading and rescattering in the spectator matter. The target dependence of the multiplicity of slow fragments exceeds A(T)2/3 for the heaviest targets.
