Description

Λ, Ξ and Ω yields measured by the WA97 experiment at central rapidity in p-Pb interactions at 158 GeV/c are compared to those predicted by VENUS 4.12. The VENUS model, although in reasonable agreement with the Λ and the negative particle data, fails to reproduce the data on multistrange baryons and anti-baryons. (author)
