Basic conclusions
-
1.
The selection criteria of central nuclear collisions were investigated, and the field of their applicability was given. The impact parameters of two nuclei for selected events are found to be ≲ 3 fm.
-
2.
Events classified as central collision ones are accompanied by the emission of at least one g-particle emitted backward in the laboratory coordinate system.
-
3.
Both the multiplicity of relativistic (s) particles and the number of pions among them are proportional to the mass of projectile nucleus.
-
4.
The sharp increase in s-particle forward collimation with increasing projectile nucleus mass is related to the increase in inelastically scattered protons of this nucleus.
-
5.
The calculations by the cascade-evaporation model for4He(Ag, Br) collisions answer a qualitative character of experimental data behaviour but overestimate the degree of target nucleus desintegration.
