Review of strange particle production from the WA85 Collaboration

Strange and, especially, multistrange baryon and anti‐baryon production is expected to be a useful probe in the search for Quark‐Gluon Plasma formation. A review of WA85 results on strange and multistrange particle production in SW and pW interactions at 200 GeV/c per nucleons is presented. In particular, mT distributions and relative ratios are presented for Ξ−s, Ξ̄−s, Λs, Λ̄s, and K0s.
