Workshop on heavy ion physics at the AGS: Outlook

The purpose of this workshop was to review the status of the current AGS experimental program on light ion collisions with heavy target nuclei in the laboratory energy range 10-15 AGeV, to debate what the present data may be teaching us about the physics of such reactions, and to evaluate the prospects of producing and diagnosing extreme baryon dense matter when truly heavy ion beams become available around 1992-3. This report presents the closing talk of the workshop on AGS heavy ion program held at BNL March 5-7, 1990. The emphasis is on new questions posed by the new data presented at this meeting with emphasis on the pion-proton puzzle
