Dissociation of relativistic C nuclei in nuclear track emulsion
Dissociation of 1.2 A GeV C nuclei in nuclear track emulsionis is
studied.
It is shown that most precise angular measurements provided by this technique
play a crucial role in the restoration of the excitation spectrum of the
2+2p system. Strong contribution of the cascade process

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
