Evidence for the energy threshold of creating the quark-gluon plasma in nucleus-nucleus
collisions, the so-called onset of deconfinement, has been found by the energy scan …

Strange particles have been a very important observable in the search for a deconfined state
of strongly interacting matter, the quark–gluon plasma (QGP), which is expected to be …

Results on charged pion and kaon production in central Pb+ Pb collisions at 20 A and 30 A
GeV are presented and compared to data at lower and higher energies. Around 30 A GeV a …

A survey is given on the applications of hydrodynamic model of nucleus-nucleus collisons,
focusing especially on i) the resolution of hydrodynamic equations for arbitrary …

Elliptic flow at BNL RHIC is computed event by event with NeXSPheRIO. We show that when
symmetry of the particle distribution in relation to the reaction plane is assumed, as usually …

The heavy-ion experiment CBM, considered as one of the core projects of the future
accelerator facility FAIR in Darmstadt, will investigate nucleus-nucleus collisions from 10 to …

QCD as a theory of extended, strongly interacting matter is familiar from big bang evolution
which, within the time interval from electro-weak decoupling (10− 12 s) to hadron formation …

This review will be concerned with our knowledge of extended matter under the governance
of strong interaction, in short: QCD matter. Strictly speaking, the hadrons are representing …

New results of the NA49 Collaboration on strange particle production are presented.
Rapidity and transverse mass spectra as well as total multiplicities are discussed. The study …

Transverse-mass spectra, their inverse slopes, and mean transverse masses in relativistic
collisions of heavy nuclei are analyzed in a wide range of incident energies, 2.7 GeV≤ s …
