Abstract: (Springer)
Multihadron production in high energy collisions, from e+e- annihilation to heavy ion interactions, shows remarkable thermal behaviour, specified by a universal “Hagedorn” temperature. We argue that
  • hadron: production
  • color: confinement
  • temperature: Hagedorn
  • tunneling
  • quantum chromodynamics
  • black hole: acceleration
  • radiation: thermal
  • electron positron: annihilation
  • string: decay
  • jet: pair production
