Abstract
One of the main motivations for carrying out research in heavy-ion collisions is to create nuclear matter at various densities and excitation energies in order to map out the nuclear phase diagram. The normal nuclei have a density of ρ 0 = 0.16 fm-3 and is at zero temperature. To extend beyond this requires the compression and deposition of energy in the nuclear matter. Experiments carried out so far indicate that heavy-ion collisions indeed offer such a possibility. Depending on the incident energy per nucleon in the collision, differernt regions of the nuclear phase diagram can be probed.
