We present the detail of a newly developed relativistic transport model (ART 1.0) for high energy heavy-ion collisions. Using this model, we first study the general collision dynamics between heavy ions at the AGS energies. We then show that in central collisions there exists a large volume of sufficiently long-lived superdense hadronic matter whose local baryon and energy densities exceed the critical densities for the hadronic matter to quark-gluon plasma transition. The size and lifetime of this matter are found to depend strongly on the equation of state. We also investigate the degree and time scale of thermalization as well as the radial flow during the expansion of the superdense hadronic matter. The flow velocity profile and the temperature of the hadronic matter at freeze-out are extracted. The transverse momentum and rapidity distributions of protons, pions and kaons calculated with and without the mean field are compared with each other and also with the preliminary data from the E866/E802 collaboration to search for experimental observables that are sensitive to the equation of state. It is found that these inclusive, single particle observables depend weakly on the equation of state. The difference between results obtained with and without the nuclear mean field is only about 20\%. The baryon transverse collective flow in the reaction plane is also analyzed. It is shown that both the flow parameter and the strength of the ``bounce-off'' effect are very sensitive to the equation of state. In particular, a soft equation of state with a compressibility of 200 MeV results in an increase of the flow parameter by a factor of 2.5 compared to the cascade case without the mean field. This large effect makes it possible to distinguish the predictions from different theoretical models and to detect the signatures

    First measurement of dNch/dη in OO collisions at 5.36 TeV yields midrapidity densities of 41.8 overall and 135 in central events, consistent with PbPb per participant but showing deviations from simple scaling.

    3FD hydrodynamics predicts larger and longer-lived regions of dense baryon matter in Au+Au collisions at 3–19.6 GeV than JAM transport, with V4(3n0) decreasing monotonically with energy.

    In a transport-model study of U+U collisions at 193 GeV, dilepton yields normalized by charged multiplicity are shown to scale linearly with the square of the nuclear quadrupole deformation beta_2, with stronger sensi...

    AMPT and UrQMD baselines for hyperon–kaon correlations in p+Au at 20–62 GeV, quantified by Wasserstein distance, show proton-going hyperons as the cleaner probe of baryon-number transport without junctions.

    GMC-suppressed rapidity-even dipolar flow correlations in AMPT and HIJING at 200 GeV show sensitivity to partonic transport and initial-state eccentricity correlations.

    Spectator nucleons enhance low-pT light-nucleus production in peripheral, forward-rapidity 3 GeV Au+Au collisions, so pT-integrated yields obtained by Blast-Wave extrapolation are underestimated.

    String fragmentation parameters in the AMPT model change proton directed flow and its system-size dependence at 19.6 GeV, while leaving pions nearly unaffected.
