In ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, \(\sqrt {^\delta NN}\) ≳ 20 GeV, a large number of particles is produced. At the early stage the system is very dense and the mean free path of particles is much less than the size of produced matter. The system must expand before the particles can propagate freely out from the interaction zone.
