Total disintegration events produced in 4.5 A GeV/c 12C--AgBr reactions are analysed to investigate the characteristics of secondary charged particles produced in such collisions. The results reveal that multiplicity distributions of grey, black, and relativistic charged particles agree with the Poisson distribution. The average multiplicity of grey particles is found to increase with the increasing mass of projectile, while the average value of black particles is found to decrease with the increasing mass of projectile. This result is in good agreement with the prediction of fireball model. Finally, the linear dependence of grey and compound multiplicities on black, heavy, and relativistic charged particles is also observed. PACS No.: 25.70

Multiplicity distributions for e+e−→ hadrons recently reported by the AMY and DELPHI collaborations are compared with the data obtained at lower energies. It is proven that the new data obey the KNO-G scaling and the scaling function can be described by the lognormal distribution. The dispersions are linear functions of the mean as for the data measured at lower energies and the standardized moments (such as skewness and kurtosis) are independent of the energy. The energy dependence of the average multiplicity is described by <nch>=β sα−1.

The interactions of 4.5 A GeV/c 24Mg and 32S nuclei with emulsion were studied. The experimental inelastic mean free path for these interactions is compared with theoretically calculated values. The average multiplicities of the emitted secondary charged particles for total disintegration were investigated. Total disintegration events are analysed to investigate the characteristics of secondary charged particles produced in such collisions. The results show that the multiplicity distributions of relativistic charged particles agree with the Gaussion distribution. The average multiplicity of grey and black particles is in good agreement with the prediction of the fireball model. The probabilty of total disintegration of Ag(Br) nuclei by different projectiles is nearly independent of the incident energy. PACS No.: 25.70

In this paper we present results from two recent studies, both related to the emission of prompt fission γ rays. Firstly, we have analyzed data from the reaction 235U(n, f) induced by fast neutrons of average energy E̅n = 1.7 MeV. The deduced spectral characteristics are an average multiplicity M̅γ = 7.11 ± 0.44 γ rays per fission and an average total γ-ray energy release in fission E̅γ,tot = 5.51 ± 0.46 MeV, corresponding to an average γ-ray energy ɛ̅γ = 0.77 ± 0.08 MeV. Secondly, we have addressed – and answered – the question how those characteristics in general depend on the width of the chosen prompt time window and the timing resolution, determined by the employed detectors and electronics. The conclusion is that once this is known, it is possible to compare results from different experiments in a more meaningful way.

Based on the North American Lightning Detection Network data and the return-stroke currents recorded at the CN Tower, the lightning environment within 100 km from the CN Tower is thoroughly investigated, especially while the tower was struck with major storms in 2011 and 2005. On Aug 24, 2011, video records showed that the tower was struck with 52 flashes within about 84 minutes, pointing out to the most intense storm that has ever been observed at the tower. During this most intense storm, the tower’s current measurement system recorded 32 flashes, containing 161 return strokes, resulting in an average flash multiplicity of 5, which is 80% higher than the average multiplicity of flashes occurring in the vicinity of the tower. Since the tower is repeatedly hit by lightning and its flashes produce markedly higher number of strokes, then it definitely poses an electromagnetic interference risk to nearby sensitive installations, including those in downtown Toronto.
