Systematics of the release of residual nuclei from relativistic nucleus-nucleus interactionsRelativistic nuclei of krypton, xenon, holmium, and gold, accelerated in a partially stripped state to a maximum rigidity of about 5.6 GeV, interacting with targets of aluminum, carbon, and polyethylene are examined. For each projectile and target combination, determinations are made for the total and partial charge changing cross sections for the production of lighter fragments. From these measurements, a new representation of the dependence of the total charge changing cross sections on beam and target charge is developed. Simple representations of the variation of the partial cross sections were identified with the charge of the produced fragments and shown to be dependent on the charge and energy of the beam. The fission of gold nuclei at high energies in these various targets has also been studied.
