10. Conclusions  The report presents the results of research fragmentation of nuclei 10 C with energy of 1.2 A GeV, the first derived at the Nuclotron, JINR.  Search and charge measurements of "white" stars are executed in 12 layers. On the total length of viewing of primary traces of 1088.1 m was found 7241 inelastic interactions, including 608 "white" stars. The mean free path of nuclei 10 C was equal to λ C = 14.8 ± 0.9 sm.  Conducted identification on the isotopic composition of the produced fragments H and He by value p  c for events 2He + 2H. In the gathered statistics of "white" stars 2He + 2H all He nuclei correspond to isotope 4 He (α), and H - 1 H (p).  Distribution of charge topology indicates the lead role of the channel with a charge configuration 10 C → 2α + 2p (82%)  The process of fragmentation of nuclei 10 C → 2α +2 p in case (≈ 30%) have a cascade character 10 C → 9 B → 8 Be by analogy with the nucleus 9 Be.  Further analysis of the angular distributions 2α + 2p will be directed to the events without formation of nuclei 8 Be g.s and 9 B. In particular, will be performed search the decays of nuclear resonances 5 Li and 6 Be.
