摘要：A new experiemntal program to study hadron production in hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus
collisions at the CERN SPS has been recently proposed by the NA49-future collaboration. The
physics goals of the program are:
-search for the critical point of strongly interacting matter and a study of the properties of the
onset of deconfinemnt in nucleus-nucleus collisions,
-measurements of correlations, fluctuations and hadron spectra at high pT in proton-nucleus collisions
needed as for better understanding of nucleus-nucleus results,
-measurements of hadron production in hadron-nucleus interactions needed for neutrino (T2K)
and cosmic-ray (Pierre Auger Observatory and KASCADE) expriments. The physics of the
nucleus-nucleus program is reviewed in this presentation.
