Abstract: (Elsevier)
We discuss some aspects of nuclear collisions at incident energies below the pion threshold. The emphasis is put on the physics of hot nuclei with implications regarding the nuclear equation of state and the transport properties of nuclear matter. To this end, the production and decay of hot nuclear species are reviewed and nuclear disassembly is discussed in terms of bulk instabilities and phase transition in finite transient systems.
