Exploring the QCD phase diagram — •Christoph Blume — Institut für Kernphysik, J.W.Goethe Universität Frankfurt am Main

In the recent years the NA49 experiment at the CERN SPS has collected data on heavy ion reactions in the beam energy range 20 - 158 AGeV. Together with data from the AGS and RHIC, this allows for a comprehensive study of the energy dependence of various hadronic observables. In my talk I would like to review results of this study and will discuss what we have learned about the QCD phase diagram. Of prime interest is the question whether a possible phase transition to a quark gluon plasma is reflected in these observables.
