Abstract

The spectra of high-pT fragments have been measured at CM 90° in 800 A MeV C + C collisions for pT up to 1.8 GeV/c (proton), 2.5 GeV/c (deuteron) and 2.8 GeV/c (triton) at the Bevalac. Invariant cross sections were measured down to eight orders of magnitude lower than those for production of low momentum protons. The proton spectrum shows a significant deviation from the Boltzmann shape in the high-energy region. The spectra of deuterons and tritons are explained well by, respectively, squaring and cubing the observed proton spectra.
