Energy Scan Program at the Cern SPS and An Observation of the Deconfinement Phase Transition in Nucleus--Nucleus Collisions
Marek Gazdzicki
Abstract
The history and the main results of the energy scan program at the CERN SPS are reviewed. Several anomalies in energy dependence of hadron production predicted as signals of deconfinement phase transition are observed and they indicate that the onset of deconfinement is located at about 30 A GeV. For the first time we seem to have clear evidence for the existence of a deconfined state of matter in nature.
