Abstract: (Elsevier)
Relativistic quantum molecular dynamics (RQMD) simulations of collisions between very massive nuclei predict complete stopping of the baryons at midrapidity. A baryon-free region - as proposed in earlier models - does not form in a beam energy regime up to the highest available energies at the CERN SPS (200 A GeV) and at the future GSI-collider (√ s = 2 × 20 A GeV).
