Light fragments (H, 2H, and 3H) were detected in coincidence with high-energy (Eγ>20 MeV) gamma rays from collisions of 14N on Zn at a beam energy of E/A=40 MeV. The light fragment coincidence energy spectra and angular distributions were similar to those from inclusive measurements. The charged-particle fold distribution measured in coincidence with either gamma rays or with light fragments are nearly the same. These results suggest that high-energy gamma-ray production occurs over a broad range of impact parameters.
