What's Interesting About Strangeness Production? - An Overview of Recent Results

Nuclear Experiment 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

In this paper I highlight a few selected topics on strange particle production in heavy-ion collisions. By studying the yield and spectra of strange particles we hope to gain understanding of the conditions reached in, and the ensuing dynamics of, the systems produced when ultra-relativistic heavy-ions are collided.
