✦ Synopsis

Spectra of inclusive double differential cross sections of 3 He and 6 He fragments produced in the interaction of 12 C with 93 Nb at 400 MeV are measured and analyzed. As was found for the production of intermediate mass fragments in this and similar reactions involving light projectiles, the spectra can to a large extent be satisfactorily reproduced only by considering the contribution of projectile break-up as well as nucleon coalescence.
