Description
The NA57 experiment has measured the pT distributions of KS0, Λ, and Λ-bar particles in fixed-target Pb-Pb interactions at √sNN = 17.3 GeV, as a function of the collision centrality. In this paper we study the central-to-peripheral nuclear modification factors and compare them to other measurements and to theoretical predictions. (author)
