We describe a simple model developed to study the production and annihilation of antiprotons in nucleus-nucleus collisions. The model can be used to calculate the antiproton yields as functions of global observables such as multiplicity, transverse energy, and zero degree energy. We discuss the predictions of the model, and its relevance to the antiproton measurements at the Brookhaven National Laboratory Alternating Gradient Synchrotron facility.
