Multi-strange particle production in relativistic heavy ion collisions at sNN=62.4\sqrt{s_{NN}}=62.4 GeV

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present preliminary STAR results on measurements of multi-strange particles ΞΞ, ΩΩ and their anti-particles from Au+Au and Cu+Cu at sNN=62.4\sqrt{s_{NN}}=62.4 GeV collisions. In order to better understand the role of strangeness enhancement in nucleus-nucleus collisions and its scaling properties with system size, we compare the results from Au+Au and Cu+Cu reactions for different event centrality classes. Strangeness enhancement is discussed in the context of multi-strange to pion ratios. Finally, Ω/ϕΩ/ϕ ratio is shown for different systems and energies for a systematic study.
