Special features of the Be2He fragmentation in emulsion at an energy of 1.2~A~GeV
The results of investigations of the relativistic Be nucleus
fragmentation in emulsion which entails the production of two He fragments of
an energy of 1.2~A~GeV are presented. The results of the angular measurements
of the Be2He events are analyzed.
The BeBe+n fragmentation channel involving the Be decay from
the ground (0) and the first excited (2) states to two
particles is observed to be predominant.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures, conference: Conference on Physics of Fundamental

Clustering in light nuclei in fragmentation above 1 A GeV
The relativistic invariant approach is applied to analyzing the 3.3 A GeV
Ne fragmentation in a nuclear track emulsion. New results on few-body
dissociations have been obtained from the emulsion exposures to 2.1 A GeV
N and 1.2 A GeV Be nuclei. It can be asserted that the use of the
invariant approach is an effective means of obtaining conclusions about the
behavior of systems involving a few He nuclei at a relative energy close to 1
MeV per nucleon. The first observations of fragmentation of 1.2 A GeV B
and C nuclei in emulsion are described. The presented results allow one
to justify the development of few-body aspects of nuclear astrophysics.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figures, 3 tables, Nuclear Physics in Astrophysics-2,

Electromagnetic dissociation of relativistic B nuclei in nuclear track emulsion
Experimental data on fragmentation channels in peripheral interactions of
B nuclei in nuclear track emulsions are presented. A detailed analysis made
it possible to justify selections of events of the electromagnetic-dissociation
process B Be + \emph{p} and to estimate its cross section. Events of
C peripheral dissociation that were observed in the same exposure are
described.Comment: 12 pages, 10 figures, 4 tables, Published in

Fragmentation of relativistic nuclei in peripheral interactions in nuclear track emulsion
The technique of nuclear track emulsions is used to explore the fragmentation
of light relativistic nuclei down to the most peripheral interactions - nuclear
"white" stars. A complete pattern of therelativistic dissociation of a B
nucleus with target fragment accompaniment is presented. Relativistic
dissociation Be is explored using significant statistics and
a relative contribution of Be decays from 0 and 2 states is
established. Target fragment accompaniments are shown for relativistic
fragmentation N3He+H and Ne5He. The leading role of the
electromagnetic dissociation on heavy nuclei with respect to break-ups on
target protons is demonstrated in all these cases. It is possible to conclude
that the peripheral dissociation of relativistic nuclei in nuclear track
emulsion is a unique tool to study many-body systems composed of lightest
nuclei and nucleons in the energy scale relevant for nuclear astrophysics.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figures, 4 tables, conference: Relativistic nuclear

Exposure of Nuclear Track Emulsion to a Mixed Beam of Relativistic N, C, and Be Nuclei
A nuclear track emulsion was exposed to a mixed beam of relativistic
N, C, and Be nuclei having a momentum of 2 GeV/ per
nucleon. The beam was formed upon charge exchange processes involving C
primary nuclei and their fragmentation. An analysis indicates that C
nuclei are dominant in the beam and that N nuclei are present in it. The
charge topology of relativistic fragments in the coherent dissociation of these
nuclei is presented.Comment: ISSN 1063-7788, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd., 201
