A review of the Hardon Gas model and its application to Pb+Pb CERN SPS collision data at a beam energy of 158 GeV/nucleon. The centrality dependence of the freeze-out parameters, characterizing both the hadron multiplicities and the transverse momentum spectra, are determined. This privides valuable information on the effect of the system size on chemical-and thermal frees-out and contributions towards the systematic understandig of the experimental data. 2014-08-13T20:03:24Z 2014-08-13T20:03:24Z 2001 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6512 eng application/pdf Department of Physics Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
