The 6th Advanced Course in Theoretical Physics was held at the
University of Cape Town, January 8-19, 1990. The topic of the
course was "Phase Structure of Strongly Interacting Matter." There
were ten invited speakers from overseas, each having up to six
hours in which to present his field of research to a relatively
small audience of about 50 participants. This allowed for the
presentation of a broad, coherent and pedagogical review of the
present status of the field. In addition there were several
one-hour presentations by local participants. The main emphasis of
the course was on the study of the properties of high density hot
nuclear matter. This field is of particular interest because of the
belief that a deconfined quark-gluon plasma could be created in
such an environment when the temperature reaches about 200MeV. In
the nuclear regime a so-called "liquid-to-gas" phase transition is
expected at a temperature of approximately 10- 20MeV. Both of these
topics received ample attention at the school. Owing the nature of
the field, there exists much overlapping interest from both the
nuclear physics and high-energy particle physics communities. It is
hoped that these proceedings will contribute to building a bridge
between the two groups."
