Strangeness production at (sub)threshold energies

Strange particles allow us to probe the properties of hot and dense baryonic matter. At incident energies close to the production threshold medium effects on the strange hadrons are magnified. New data obtained with the recently completed FOPI upgrade are presented for the system Ni+Ni at 1.91 A GeV...

Description
Summary:Strange particles allow us to probe the properties of hot and dense baryonic matter. At incident energies close to the production threshold medium effects on the strange hadrons are magnified. New data obtained with the recently completed FOPI upgrade are presented for the system Ni+Ni at 1.91 A GeV and discussed in comparison to earlier findings. Special emphasis is put on the search for multibaryonic strange bound states, of which the Delta *Lp-channel is analyzed in detail.
