Description

In this proceedings, we review the current status of experimental searches for novel forms of nuclear matter, namely strange quark matter states. A detailed summary of H-dibaryon results is given and implications on the stability of such a state is reviewed. Final results from the BNL-AGS and CERN-SPS strangelet searches are presented and put in the context of coalescence and plasma production models. (author)
