STAR results on strangeness production in beam energy scan program
نویسنده
چکیده
We present the recent STAR results on the production of strange hadrons (K S , φ, Λ, Ξ and Ω) in √ sNN = 7.7−39 GeV Au+Au collisions in the RHIC beam energy scan program. We investigate the strangeness enhancement and strangeness equilibration as a function of beam energy and system size at RHIC. Nuclear modification factors and particle ratios will be highlighted. Implications on partonic vs. hadronic dynamics as a function of the beam energy will be discussed.

STAR Results on Strangeness Production at RHIC energies
Strangeness measurement at RHIC energies constitutes one of the favorite theme of the STAR Collaboration. Besides the fact that strangeness enhancement has been proposed as a quark gluon plasma signature, its production provides various and relevant information about the collision evolution and especially on the hadronization process. The investigation of short-lived strange particles as well a...
متن کاملStrangeness Production via Parton Cascade
We study pre-equilibrium strangeness production at RHIC energies in a new parton cascade. Starting with the turbulent glue HIJING initial conditions we investigate the interplay between mini-jet and soft beam jet gluons for strangeness production prior to hadronization, and show the importance of soft beam jet gluons in the strangeness production.
متن کاملEnergy dependence of strangeness production
We present a summary of strange particle yields measured by the experiment NA49 in central Pb+Pb collisions in the beam energy range 20 158 AGeV. The comparison with thermal hadron model results shows that above 30 AGeV, a strangeness undersaturation parameter γS must be employed to describe the data. This suggests a change in the strangeness production mechanism at this energy. We find that th...
متن کاملRecent results from the NA49 experiment
One of the most interesting results from the NA49 energy scan program at the CERN SPS is an anomalous behaviour of the energy dependence of the 〈K〉/〈π+〉-ratio in central Pb+Pb reactions [1]. Also, results on the energy dependence of K−φ-, Λ-, Λ̄-, andΩ-production have been reported [2, 3, 8]. The question whether all strange particles exhibit rapid changes in their yield relative to pions and wh...

Recent NA49 results on Λ and φ production in central Pb-Pb collisions at beam energies from 40 to 158 A·GeV are presented. The measurement of strange baryons like Λ(uds), which contain between 30 and 60% of the total strangeness produced, allows to study simultaneously strangeness production and the effect of baryon density in A-A collisions. Essentially half of the ¯ s quarks are contained in ...
