Strangeness enhancement in the string fusion model code

  • 1. Departamento de Fisica de Particulas, Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, 15706-Santiago de Compostela (Spain)

Description

The string fusion model code results for Pb-Pb central collisions at SPS energies including the string fusion interaction mechanism are compared to the last experimental data. Predictions for RHIC energies are also presented. The evolution of the strangeness enhancement ratio Es=(Λ)+4(Ks0)/3(π-) with energy and with atomic number of the participant nuclei is also discussed and related to the effects of string fusion and high-coloured strings.
