“…For this type of interactions, the distributions of multiplicities of the special BURST events are not given in this paper, because they look very similar to the TD events as presented in Ref. [11].…”

“…In order to reduce and possibly eliminate the number of secondary particle interactions, the emulsion dimension along the beam line must be reduced. It is shown that for L = 0.5 cm the contribution of secondary particle interaction products is negligible [11].…”

“…protons, deuterons, tritons, 3 He, 4 He and charged pions) are considered to yield measurable prongs regardless of their energies (track length) and total number of prongs present in an event is identical to the number of charged particles in the output channel. This may not be necessarily the case in the experimental measurements [11] where due to track identification and measurement limitations not all tracks may be measureable, in particular in events which are composed of many tracks.…”

Aspects of BURSTS and Spallation reactions induced by high-energy heavy ions in thick targets (>10 cm thick) will be investigated: BURSTS are reviewed from a historical and phenomenological point-of-view. Details of interactions in nuclear emulsions will be compared for irradiations of 72 GeV 22 Ne-ions from Dubna with irradiations of 72 GeV 40 Ar-ions from Berkeley. Measured correlations in individual interactions between multiplicities of "minimum ionizing particles", n s , and "black prongs", n b , will be shown as "n s -vs.-n b " per event for BURSTS and separately for Spallation in interactions of 72 GeV 22 Ne-ions. Monte Carlo calculations, based on the MCNPX 2.7 code, have been carried out for 72 GeV 22 Ne interacting in nuclear emulsions: The correlation between n s and n b in Spallation reactions could be understood. However, "n s -vs.-n b " correlations from BURST-interactions could not be reproduced with this model for events with small numbers of heavy prongs n h ≤ 10. For large numbers of heavy prongs with n h > 10 one could find some agreement between experiments and calculations, however, not in all details. Further experimental and theoretical studies are necessary before one has a complete understanding of BURST interactions in high-energy heavy ion reactions.

Comment on the Recent Start of a New “IUPAC-Project”

The opening of a new IUPAC-project is highly appreciated. In the year 2009, the IUPAC had published an article "Discovery of the element with atomic number 112 (IUPAC Technical Report)" [1]* which contains a section on the work of the Marinov collaboration. It appears that this section is not always in agreement with conventional standards for scientific publications. This present comment focuses on these formal questions.
