Abstract

Results of the NA49 experiment on particle production in the energy regime of the CERN‐SPS are reviewed. In order to collect information on the properties of the QCD phase diagram systematic studies of the energy dependence of particle production in heavy ion collisions have been performed. Net‐baryon distributions and results on strangeness production are discussed. Recent attempts to search for a critical point, such as multiplicity fluctuations and the transverse mass dependence of anti‐baryon/baryon ratios are reviewed.
