Abstract
The equilibration in relativistic heavy-ion collisions for the systems O-16 + O-16, Ca-40 + Ca-40 and La-139 + 139(La is studied with relati vistic VUU theory. We have found that the mean field still plays an im portant role in addition to the collision term in the equilibration pr ocess in relativistic heavy-ion collisions at energy around 1 GeV/nucl eon. The influence of the medium effect is studied. The light and medi um systems do not reach complete equilibrium so that the concept based on it is questionable at the energy domain 1 GeV/nucleon.
