Abstract
We discuss the possibility that hadron bubbles formed in quark-gluon plasmas below or slightly above the critical temperature start growing by explosive deflagration or detonation processes. In these the phase transition takes place in a thin layer of discontinuity propagating outward from the point of bubble formation. Combustion theory is written in relativistic form, and possible physical deflagration and detonation bubble solutions conserving energy and momentum, producing entropy, and satisfying correct boundary conditions are classified and numerically discussed using the bag equation of state for quark matter. The implications of these solutions to ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions and early cosmology are discussed.
