A review and application of the Hadron gas model to heavy ion collisions

Includes bibliographical references. === A review and application of the Hadron Gas model to data gathered from heavy ion collision experiments in search of the Quark Gluon Plasma. The Hadron Gas model is extended by ensuring overall charge conservation of the collision system at freeze-out. Conclus...
