This paper presents a fractal analysis of emission of medium-energy target protons from 24Mg - AgBr interactions at 4.5 A GeV, in terms of their emission angle (q) and azimuthal angle (f), following the method proposed by F. Takagi. The generalised dimensions Dq have been calculated for q = 2, 3 and 4. The values are almost independent of the order for both phase spaces, suggesting mono-fractality of proton emission in heavy ion interactions.
