The analysis of neutron n and singly charged particle Q=1 participated from 16O at 4.5A GeV/c interactions with emulsion nuclei are presented. The average multiplicities of shower particle for n and Q=1 stay more or less constant when compared with analogous data on P-A at similar momentum. The multiplicity distributions as well as the average values of the various secondary particles are studied, discussed and compared with the calculations according cascade evaporation model. The results lead to assume that the n and Q=1 from 16O tend to collide peripherally with target emulsion or in other words to make gentle reactions.
