Abstract

The light front analysis of pi^- mesons in A_P (He, C, Mg, O) + A_T (Li,C, Ne, Mg,Cu,Pb) collisions is carried out. The phase space of secondary pions is naturally divided into two parts in one of which the thermal equilibration assumption seems to be in a good agreement with data. Corresponding temperatures are extracted and compared to the results of other experiments. The dependence of the average temperature T on (A_P*A_T)^1/2 is studied.
