摘要: The fragmentation resulting from peripheral Au + collisions at an incident energy of {ital E}=35 MeV/nucleon is investigated. A power-law charge distribution, A}{sup {minus}{tau}} with {tau}{approx_equal}2.2, and intermittency signal are observed for events selected in the region Campi scatter plot where {open_quote}{open_quote}critical{close_quote}{close_quote} behavior expected. {copyright} 1996 American Physical Society.}
