Abstract

It is suggested that very hot and dense nuclear matter may be formed in a transient state in "head-on" collisions of very energetic heavy ions with medium and heavy nuclei. A study of the particles emitted in these collisions should give clues as to the nature of dense hot nuclear matter. Some simple models regarding the effects of meson and N* production on the properties of dense hot nuclear matter are discussed.
