Abstract
The hadronic cascade of high-energy particles in nuclei is discussed. As the incident energy of the bombarding particles is increased, a larger fraction of the products of the first collision strike the second nucleon. In a few successive collisions of relatively small momentum transfers in which the bombarding mass is increased, it is possible to double the energy available in the center-of-mass system. This can conceivably be a very useful analytical tool at high energies.
