Strangeness fluctuations and MEMO production at FAIR

Steinheimer, Jan, Mitrovski, Michael, Schuster, Tim et al.

Understand

We apply a coupled transport-hydrodynamics model to discuss the production of multi-strange meta-stable objects in Pb+Pb reactions at the FAIR facility.

  • In addition to making predictions for yields of these particles we are able to calculate particle dependent rapidity and momentum distributions.
  • We argue that the FAIR energy regime is the optimal place to search for multi-strange baryonic object (due to the high baryon density, favouring a distillation of strangeness).
  • Additionally, we show results for strangeness and baryon density fluctuations.
