| Units in group rings of free products of prime cyclic groups Let $G$ be a free product of cyclic groups of prime order. The
structure of the unit group ${\cal U}(\Q G)$ of the rational group
ring $\Q G$ is given in terms of free products and amalgamated free
products of groups. As an application, all finite subgroups of
${\cal U}(\Q G)$, up to conjugacy, are described and the
Zassenhaus Conjecture for finite subgroups in $\Z G$ is proved. A
strong version of the Tits Alternative for ${\cal U}(\Q G)$ is
obtained as a corollary of the structural result.
