Title: Pion production in high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions
Abstract: New data are reported on the pion production in relativistic central collisions especially for 3.6 GeV/N oxygen beams on Pb and Ne targets using the SKM-200 Dubna streamer chamber facility. Multiplicities and kinematical characteristics of negative secondaries are analyzed. The ratio of the average negative meson number to the average number of interacting protons is discussed. A comparison is made with other pion data. The technique of pion interferometry is used to study the pion source for central collisions of oxygen beam on lead. The temperature and density phase of nuclear matter in O+Pb collisions is estimated from pion data and the results are compared with those of other experiments.
