High energy nuclear collisions

Highlights of the results from ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at CERN-SPS are reviewed. In particular, I discuss how the experimental results indicate that a collective strongly interacting system has been produced, and what are the implications towards the quark gluon plasma.

description Highlights of the results from ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at CERN-SPS are reviewed. In particular, I discuss how the experimental results indicate that a collective strongly interacting system has been produced, and what are the implications towards the quark gluon plasma. The physical ideas behind measuring certain observables are introduced. The future program of high energy nuclear collisions at BNL-RHIC and CERN-LHC/ALICE is also briefly discussed. (119 refs).
