A study has been carried out with the intermittency parameter of disintegration of light (C,N,O) and heavy group (Ag,Br) of photoemulsion nuclei. The result for the dependence of anomalous fractal co-dimension (d_q) with the order of the moment q as well as the variation of l_q against q indicate that self-similar cascade mechanism is responsible for the disintegration of target nuclei. No signal of phase transition during the process has been observed.
