My primary interest is heavy ion collision theory in the energy range 30 MeV/nucleon to many GeV/nucleon. In this energy range the important questions to ask are:

• Can we extract information about the nuclear equation of state ?
• Do we see a liquid-gas phase transition in the lower beam energy experiments ?
• What is the proper theoretical framework which can be used to describe intermediate energy heavy ion collisions?

Much progress in these areas has been made and McGill has been a solid contributor.
