Abstract

The first data from a 16O beam of total energy 232 GeV at the BNL Tandem-AGS are discussed. Preliminary results from a 28Si beam of total energy 406 GeV are also shown. The full complement of E802, including a magnetic spectrometer, was used for the 28Si measurement. A different experimental arrangement was used for 16O. Comparison measurements with proton beams are presented for both configurations.

Presented at the 6th International Conference on Ultra-Relativistic Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions — Quark Matter 1987, 24–28 August 1987, Nordkirchen, Federal Republic of Germany
