The transverse energy distributions have been measured for interactions of 32S nuclei with Al, Ag, W, Pt, Pb, and U targets, at an incident energy of 200 GeV per nucleon in the pseudorapidity region −0.1 < νlab < 5.5. These distributions are compared with those for 16OW interactions in the same pseudorapidity region and with earlier measurements performed with 16O and 32S projectiles in the region −0.1 < νlab < 2.9. These comparisons provide both a better understanding of the dynamics involved and improved estimates of stopping power and energy density.

Abstract
The transverse energy distributions have been measured for interactions of 32S nuclei with Al, Ag, W, Pt, Pb, and U targets, at an incident energy of 200 GeV per nucleon in the pseudorapidity region −0.1 < νlab < 5.5. These distributions are compared with those for 16OW interactions in the same pseudorapidity region and with earlier measurements performed with 16O and 32S projectiles in the region −0.1 < νlab < 2.9. These comparisons provide both a better understanding of the dynamics involved and improved estimates of stopping power and energy density.File in questo prodotto:
