Emission of fast deuterons in interaction of protons with heavy emulsion nuclei

  • 1. Joint Institute of Nuclear Research

Description

The relative yield of deuterons in the momentum range about 0.23--0.45 GeV/c per nucleon has been measured in interaction of 4.5-GeV/c protons with the heavy emulsion nuclei Ag and Br. Similar data obtained in various laboratories at a proton momentum 24 GeV/c are analyzed as well. From comparison of the experimental results it follows that at the incident-particle momentum 24 GeV/c the cascade nucleons are not the only source of deuteron emission; a substantial contribution comes from an unknown mechanism which has not yet been studied
