Strangelets and strange quark matter

  • 1. California Univ., Berkeley, CA (United States). Div. of Nuclear Science

Description

I summarize the properties of finite lumps of strange quark matter (strangelets) with emphasis on the two scenarios for producing strange matter in relativistic heavy ion collisions. As an outlook, I discuss the possibility of short-lived strange composites and charmed matter. (orig.)
