Abstract
The study of backward-forward and forward-forward correlations in coll isions of two nuclei at high energies allow us to distinguish between the fusion of strings produced in the collision into new strings of hi gher color and the possibility of the fusion of produced hadrons into clusters. The results for AB collisions at the CERN Super Proton Synch rotron (SPS) and the Brookhaven Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are discussed.
