Abstract

Relati vistic heavy-ion collisions provide a unique tool to study the properties of hot and dense nuclear matter. The high stopping power of nuclei in nuclear matter leads to a rapid heating and to a compression of the medium. Two classes of observables are available. One ofthem tests the dynamics of the nuclear matter expressed by pictorial words like flow, squeeze out and side splash, whereas the other class of observables explores the properties of hot and dense nuclear matter via particle production.
