Abstract
The production of pions and light fragments in fast nuclear collisions is calculated in a relativistic fluid-dynamical model. The linear dependence on bombarding energy and, in particular, the absolute values of the calculated pion, proton and deuteron yields are found to be in agreement with recent experimental data. The previous discrepancy between the calculated entropy values and the measured deuteron-to-proton ratios is resolved.Keywords
