The study of backward-forward and forward-forward correlations in collisions of two nuclei at high energies allows us to distinguish between the fusion of strings produced in the collision into new strings of higher color and the possibility of the fusion of produced hadrons into clusters. The results for [ital AB] collisions at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) and the Brookhaven Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are discussed.
