Editorial Reviews

The subject of this workshop (held May-June 1989) plays the central role in high energy heavy ion collisions; contains the possibilities of various phase transitions (gas--vapor, meson condensation, quark--gluon plasma); and plays an important role in the static and dynamical behavior of stars, especially in supernova explosions and in neutron star stability. Papers address: non-perturbative QCD; first experiments on ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions; strangeness and charm; relativistic fluid dynamics; kinetic models and string theory; electromagnetic production of leptons, Higgs', and susys.
