Abstract
Implications of the most recent pion-production data are discussed. It is observed that they can be used to answer some of the crucial questions raised in understanding the basic reaction mechanism of relativistic heavy-ion collisions. As a by-product of this discussion, it is shown that the volume of the pion sources in violent collisions can be determined from single-particle inclusive data. Further hadron-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collision experiments are suggested.Keywords
