Measurement of energy and charged particle emission in the central rapidity region from O+A andp+A collisions at 14.5 GeV/c per nucleon and preliminary results from Si+A collisions

  • Published:

Abstract

The first data from a16O beam of total energy 232 GeV at the BNL Tandem-AGS are discussed. Preliminary results from a28Si beam of total energy 406 GeV are also shown. The full complement of E802, including a magnetic spectrometer, was used for the28Si measurement. A different experimental arrangement was used for16O. Comparison measurements with proton beams are presented for both configurations.
