Description

Motivated by recent experimental observations, we discuss the freeze-out properties of the fireball created in central heavy ion collisions. We find that the freeze-out parameters, temperature T, and velocity gradient near the center of the fireball are similar for different colliding systems and beam energies. This means that the transverse flow is stronger in collisions of heavy nuclei than that of light ones. copyright 1999 The American Physical Society
