For the present work, we have used the HYDJET++ model to explore the production of pure multi$-$strange hadrons in Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$= 2.76 TeV and $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$= 5.02 TeV collision energies, respectively.…
It is expected that the magnetic field in the surface of magnetars do not exceed $10^{15}$ G. However, in heavy ion collisions, this value is expected to be much higher. We investigate the effects of a magnetic fields varying from…

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…
The description of hadron production in relativistic heavy-ion collisions in the statistical hadronization model is very good, over a broad range of collision energy. We outline this both for the light (u, d, s) and heavy (charm) quarks and…

Using a multiphase transport model, we study the production of multistrange baryons from the hadronic matter formed in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The mechanism we introduce is the strangeness-exchange reactions between antikaons and…
