On Λ and Ksub(s)sup(o) production in central nucleus-nucleus interactions at 4.5 GeV/c momentum per nucleon

Description

Strange particle production is experimentally investigated in central nucleus-nucleus collisions. The production of strangeness is due to the highly excited states of the nuclear matter. Neutral lambda and K particles are reported in central collisions of C and O projectiles of 4.5 GeV/c/amu with nuclear targets C, Ne, Cu, Zr and Pb. The data are consistent with the results of inelastic He-Li collisions which can be interpreted as a superposition of independent nucleon-nucleon interactions. (D.Gy.)
