Abstract: (IOP)

Recent theoretical attempts to study high energy heavy ion reactions are reviewed. Special emphasis is given to the description of the dynamical evolution and to the production of pions and light fragments in the collision. Evidence for a collective quasi-hydrodynamic flow behaviour of compressed nuclear matter is presented. We show that the pion yield is sensitive to the nuclear equation of state and to the viscosity in hot dense nuclear matter. A 4π exclusive flow analysis of intermediate energy nuclear collisions can be used to reveal the compressibility coefficient of nuclear matter.
