Abstract
We present proton and pion tranverse momentum spectra and rapidity distribu tions for Au+Au collisions at 10.8A GeV/c. The proton spectra exhibit colle ctive transverse flow effects. Evidence of the influence of the Coulomb int eraction from the fireball is found in the pion transverse momentum spectra . The data are compared with the predictions of the RQMD event generator.
