First results from measurements of all the shower particles produced in 191 nearly central interactions of a 200-GeV/nucleon /sup 16/O beam with nuclear emulsion are presented. The lower limit of the average energy density for the events with multiplicity n/sub s/greater than or equal to200 is approx. =1 GeV/fm/sup 3/.
