Astrophysics perspectives on high-energy nucleus-nucleus collisions

  • 1. Univ. of Chicago, IL

Description

Various implications of high-energy heavy-ion collisions on astrophysics problems are reviewed. A discursive overview is given in four specific astrophysics areas: cosmic ray propagation an calibration studies; equation of state of neutron star matter and the maximum mass of a nuetron star; equation of state of collapsing stellar matter and the origin of black holes, neutron stars, and supernovas; and the quark-hadron phase transition in the early universe and the possible role it may play in generating fluctuations in the universe. References are given to reviews rather than to primary source material
