Strange Hadron and Hypernuclei Production in Dense Baryonic Matter — •Yue Hang Leung for the CBM collaboration — Im Neuenheimer Feld 226 69120 Heidelberg

Strange hadrons and hypernuclei have been have been suggested to be sensitive probes to the medium properties of the nuclear matter created in heavy-ion collisions. At low collision energies, the medium formed is dense and baryon-rich due to baryon stopping. Since strange hadrons are produced near or below threshold at low collision energies, their yields may give strong constraints on the equation-of-state of high baryon density matter.

In this presentation, recent results on strange hadron and hypernuclei production from intermediate to low energy heavy-ion collisions from STAR will be discussed. Future prospects at CBM will be discussed, with a special focus on the tracking capabilities of the ongoing mCBM project.
