Data taken over the last several years have demonstrated that RHIC has created a hot, dense medium with partonic degrees of freedom. Identified particle spectra at high transverse momentum ($p_T$) and heavy flavor are thought to be well…
We propose a simple model of production of strange baryons and antibaryons in nuclear collisions at the CERN SPS. The model takes into account both the increase of strangeness production in collisions of lighter ions and a possibility of…

We review the methods and results obtained in an analysis of the experimental heavy ion collision research program at nuclear beam energy of 160-200A GeV. We study strange, and more generally, hadronic particle production experimental data.…
The study of strangeness production at LHC will bring significant information on the bulk chemical properties, its dynamics and the hadronisation mechanisms involved at these energies. The ALICE experiment will measure strange particles…
Theoretical and experimental studies of hot and/or dense matter, such as is created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions, and encountered in compact objects in astrophysics, constitute one of the most active frontiers in nuclear physics. In…

Recent measurements of the asymmetries between Feynman $x$ distributions of strange and antistrange hadrons in $\pi^- A$ interactions show a strong effect as a function of $x_F$. We calculate strange hadron production in the context of the…
Strangeness enhancement is considered as a potential signature for QGP phase transition. Here we claim the observation of strangeness enhancement in proton-proton (pp) collisions at RHIC energy saying the de-confinement phase is reached.…
Multi-strange baryons are of particular interest in the understanding of particle production mechanisms, as their high strangeness content makes them susceptible to changes in the hadrochemistry of the colliding systems. In ALICE, these…
The yields of strange hadrons have been measured as a function of centrality in Au+Au and in $p+p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV in STAR. The system size and energy dependence are studied and compared for $p+p$ and Au+Au collisions.…
An effective model with constituent quarks as fundamental degrees of freedom is used to predict the relative strangeness production pattern in both high energy elementary and heavy ion collisions. The basic picture is that of the…
Strangeness plays an important role in the study of quark matter since it indicates the rate at which new particles are being produced and therefore provides information about the degree of chemical equilibration reached in heavy ion…
We present an overview of recent STAR results on strangeness production in p+p and heavy-ion collisions at RHIC. In both Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions we show the centrality dependencies of bulk yield and mid-$p_{T}$ spectrum measurements with…
