Recent Results from E866 at BNL
Recent and preliminary single-particle data are presented from the AGS Experiment 866 at BNL. Emphasis is put on the transverse mass as well as the rapidity distributions of charged pions, kaons, protons, deuterons and anti-protons measured in the most central Au+Au collisions at an incident kinetic energy of 10.8 AGeV. The data suggest a high degree of stopping power present in these reactions. Applying an expanding fireball scenario to describe the experimental distributions substantial transverse and longitudinal flow velocities result.
