Abstract
We give a short overview on the most important possibilities of entropy production in the relativistic heavy ion collisions, which is connected to the shock phenomena. We consider as example the E802 experiment, where one can determine the specific entropy content from measured strange particle ratios. The received large entropy value (S/NB ∼ 14) can be explained by assuming quark-gluon plasma formation. The possibility of overcooling of quark-gluon plasma and its deflagration are also investigated.
