ABSTRACT
The invariant cross-sections of fragments from lithium to oxygen in terms of longitudinal versus transversal velocity components are investigated for p + Au collisions at 2.1 GeV which allowed the source velocity to be measured in each case. It was found that fragments are emitted by one slowly moving source and source velocity of target spectator decreasing with increasing fragment charge.
