Description
We present an analysis of rapidity and transverse energy distributions in nucleus-nucleus collisions recently measured at BNL and CERN. Many of the observed features can be understood in the framework of the Landau hydrodynamic model. This implies a large amount of stopping and suggests a high degree of thermalization. (orig.)
