/ Abstract
Multifragment emission following {sup 129}Xe+{sup 197}Au collisions at 30A, 40A, 50A, and 60A MeV has been studied with multidetector systems covering nearly 4{pi} in solid angle. The correlations of both the intermediate mass fragment and light charged particle multiplicities with the transverse energy are explored. A comparison is made with results from a similar system {sup 136}Xe+{sup 209}Bi at 28A MeV. The experimental trends are compared to statistical model predictions. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
