Abstract

Analysis of emission of projectile and target fragments in 22Ne+Ag(Br) collisions at 4.1A GeV/c is carried out to study peculiarities of particle 'sideward flow'. The possibility of determining the reaction plane is considered. 'Bounce-off' of 22Ne projectile fragments is observed by investigating their projections onto the reaction plane. The angular distribution of slow fragments has a maximum which is due to 'side splash'. By studying projections onto the azimuthal plane, data on 'sideward flow' are obtained. An increase of ranges is observed for slow fragments emitted in the direction of the 'side splash'.
