Results are presented of an analysis of the angular distributions of protons with E/sub p/> or =30 MeV emitted with different numbers of secondary charged particles in ..pi../sup +/+Xe interactions at 2.34 GeV/c. The obtained distributions are compared with the analogous characteristics of the protons emitted in collisions of protons or ..cap alpha.. particles with heavy emulsion nuclei and with lead at 70 and 17 GeV/c. It is concluded that the investigated distributions reveal no irregularities capable of attesting to a noticable role of the shock-wave mechanism in the target nuclei.
