Abstract

The fireball concept introduced, adopted, and widely used in cosmic ray physics for more than two decades has been decidedly rejected by accelerator physicists, It is Only during the last 5–8 years that accellerator experiments in TeV range have led to the cluster idea thus marking convergence of two kinds of particle physics. Analysis shows that the convergence is even more essential than one might think. Heavy nonresonant unstable objects have natural place in any quantum field theory while any multiperipheral type model when applied to accelerator experiments needs such objects. In general fireball concept seems to have a far reaching support both in theory and experiment.
