Description
Nuclear collisions at high energies produce large numbers of secondaries.
Results from the ALICE collaboration show that more than 20 000 of them are produced in a Pb-Pb collision. In view of this it is natural to consider a statistical-thermal model to analyse these and concepts like temperature, energy density, pressure, net baryon density etc... are useful.
A presentation will be given of the present status of the thermal model as well as expectations for future experiments at CERN/RHIC/FAIR/JINR are shown.
