Measurements of Lambda, Lambda-bar and K-short from Pb-Pb collisions at 158 GeV per nucleon in a large acceptance experiment

The main reason for studying relativistic heavy-ion collisions is to discover the phase transition from nuclear matter to the Quark-Gluon Plasma. Such a transition is predicted to occur under conditions of high temperature and density. The predicted state features deconfined quarks and gluons as the...
