Strange baryon production in Pb-Pb collisions at 158 A GeV/c

The experiment WA97 is dedicated to the study of strange baryon production in Pb-Pb interactions at SPS energy. Results on the production of strange and multistrange baryons at midrapidity in Pb- Pb at 158 A GeV c/sup -1/ are reported and compared with those from p-Pb and p-Be reactions at the same...

Descripción
Sumario:The experiment WA97 is dedicated to the study of strange baryon production in Pb-Pb interactions at SPS energy. Results on the production of strange and multistrange baryons at midrapidity in Pb- Pb at 158 A GeV c/sup -1/ are reported and compared with those from p-Pb and p-Be reactions at the same energy. The evidence for deconfinement emerging from the observed pattern of strange baryon production is discussed. (13 refs).
