Description

In the framework of a microscopic string model inclusive charged particle distribution and baryon and antibaryon production are described. The emphasis is put on high energies (RHIC) where shadowing corrections play a crucial role. Some recent developments on J/ψ suppression at CERN-SPS are also discussed. Possible consequences for the crucial issue of thermal equilibration of the produced system are considered. (author)
