We present a summary and perspective view of the Miniworkshop on ``{\it Entropy and Thermalization}'' in strong interactions (convener J. Rafelski), which was part of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on ``{\it Hot Hadronic Matter}'' that…
A fundamental challenge is to understand nonequilibrium statistical mechanics starting from microscopic chaos in the equations of motion of a many-particle system. In this review we summarize recent theoretical advances along these lines.…
Thermal models have proven to be an useful and simple tool used to make theoretical predictions and data analysis in relativistic and ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. A new version of these models is presented here, incorporating a…
A microscopic model of deconfined matter based on color interactions between semi-classical quarks is studied. A hadronization mechanism is imposed to examine the properties and the disassembly of a thermalized quark plasma and to…
An examination of thermal models leads to the important signature of the expected critical behavior of the hadronic matter. A presentation is mainly devoted to the final volume effects. Canonical suppression factor are calculated.
Statistical hadronization models are extremly succesful in describing measured ratios of hadrons produced in heavy-ion collisions for a wide range of beam energies from SIS to RHIC. Using the idea of statistical hadronization at the phase…
In their seminal work, Fermi, Pasta, Ulam and Tsingou explored the connection between statistical mechanics and dynamical properties, such as chaos and ergodicity. Even today, seventy years later, the topic is not fully understood: while…
The established thermodynamic formalism of chaotic dynamics, valid at statistical equilibrium, is here generalized to systems out of equilibrium, that have yet to relax to a steady state. A relation between information, escape rate, and the…
We examine the phase diagram of hadronic matter when the number of colors, as well as temperature and density, are varied. We show that in this regime several new phase transitions are possible, and we examine issues related to these…
This dissertation examines the phenomenology of statistical hadronization at ultrarelativistic energies. We start with an overview of current experimental and theoretical issues in Relativistic heavy ion physics. We then introduce…
This thesis is dedictaed to the study of fluctuation and correlation observables of hadronic equilibrium systems. The statistical hadronization model of high energy physics, in its ideal, i.e. non-interacting, gas approximation will be…
This work is an attempt to give a brief overview of the implementation of the statistical ther- modynamics to hadronic matter. The possibility to use the hydrodynamic approach for developing the physical model of the formation of exotic…
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with a general number of colors, $\Nc$, provides a powerful theoretical laboratory to explore the dynamics of non-Abelian gauge theories. Although $\Nc =3$ does not look a large number, the $1/\Nc$ expansion…
These are the proceedings of the workshop "HadAtom99", held at the Institut fuer Theoretische Physik, Universitaet Bern, October 14-15, 1999. The main topics discussed at the workshop were the physics of hadronic atoms and in this context…
Current results in high temperature gauge theories obtained in the context of the perturbative method of resumming hard thermal loops are reviewed. Beyond leading order properties of the gluon excitation, and the recent (controversial)…
In the past few years a wealth of high quality data has made possible to test current theoretical ideas about the properties of hadrons subject to extreme conditions of density and temperature. The relativistic heavy-ion program carried out…
The chaotic hypothesis is proposed as a basis for a general theory of nonequilibrium stationary states. Version 2: new comments added after presenting this talk at the Meeting mentioned in the Acknowledgement. One typo corrected.
The strong eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) provides a sufficient condition for thermalization and equilibration. Although it is expected to be hold in a wide class of highly chaotic theories, there are only a few analytic…
Although it is now understood that chaos in complex classical systems is the foundation of thermodynamic behavior, the detailed relations between the microscopic properties of the chaotic dynamics and the macroscopic thermodynamic…
The dynamics of nuclear transparency in hard nuclear reactions is studied by an expansion of the correlator of the hard scattering operator on a hadronic basis. Colour transparency appears as an effect of interference between the amplitudes…
