Title: Relativistic heavy ions at Brookhaven: high energy nuclear beams in the AGS and RHIC

Abstract

The design and proposed experiments are presented for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven. The plans are to begin with relatively light ions (A approx. = 32amu) and to extend over the mass range to A = 200. With these relativistic beams one will be able to investigate thermodynamic conditions with near-zero baryon number which can be compared with quantum chromodynamics. 14 refs., 10 figs., 3 tabs. (WRF)
