Abstract

Collective flow processes were the first phenomena showing that nuclear matter in heavy ion collisions can behave collectively, and not just as a set of independent nucleon nucleon collisions. The present highest energy experiments show the dominance of the fluid dynamical processes due to much higher particle multiplicities. In addition the possibility of new collective phenomena occurs which were known only in macroscopic systems up to now as rotation and turbulent instabilities.

Dedicated to Prof. Mikhail Itkis for his 70th birthday!
