We present STAR measurements of strange hadron ($\mathrm{K}^{0}_{\mathrm S}$, $\Lambda$, $\overline{\Lambda}$, $\Xi^-$, $\overline{\Xi}^+$, $\Omega^-$, $\overline{\Omega}^+$, and $\phi$) production at mid-rapidity ($|y| < 0.5$) in Au+Au…
Strangeness production in heavy-ion collisions, when compared to proton proton collisions, is potentially a sensitive probe for collective energy deposition and therefore for reaction mechanisms in general. It may therefore provide insight…

We report on the measurements of strange hadron ($K^0_S$, $\Lambda$, $\Xi$) production in the most central (0-20%) d+Au collisions at \sqrt{s_{NN}} = 200 GeV in STAR. Significant strangeness enhancement is observed in the most central d+Au…

The transverse mass spectra and mid-rapidity yields for $\Xi$s and $\Omega$s plus their anti-particles are presented. The 10% most central collision yields suggest that the amount of multi-strange particles produced per produced charged…

We discuss strangeness production in heavy-ion collisions in the broad energy range --- from SIS energies through AGS-SPS-RHIC and upto LHC energies. On several examples we demonstrate how the strange particle production can reveal…
We report on the observed differences in production rates of strange and multi-strange baryons in Au+Au collisions at sqrts = 200 GeV compared to pp interactions at the same energy. The strange baryon yields in Au+Au collisions, then scaled…
The production of dibaryons, light nuclei and hypertriton in the most central Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$ 11.5 and 200 GeV are investigated by using a naive coalescence model. The production of light nuclei is studied and found…

Strangeness production in Au+Au collisions has been measured via the yields of K+ and K- at 6, 8 AGeV and of anti-Lambda at 10.8 AGeV beam kinetic energy in experiment E917. By varying the collision centrality and beam energy, a systematic…
Nuclear experiments near and below the threshold of hyperon production have shown that the production of Kaons is a sensitive probe for the dense QCD equation of state. At beam energies up to 1.5AGeV, strangeness production can probe the…
