Introduction Fritiof String interactionsˇ In Fritiof this was modelled by stretching out a string from each wounded nucleon with an invariant mass distributed as dm X / m X . Each string gives a flat rapidity distribution, so This gives F ( η ) ∼ η − η 0 . Note that there are no collective effects here. But nevertheless Fritiof reproduced most data: No conclusive evidence for QGP until the late nineties. Angantyr 5 Leif Lönnblad Lund University
