Description
We suggest that the variation of the ratio nsub(K+)/nsub(π+) with the thermodynamical intensive variables, e.g., baryon chemical potential and temperature should be studied in high energy collisions of two heavy nuclei and a change in the variation of this ratio can be used to distinguish between the quark-gluon plasma and the hadronic contributions.
