NA57 main results
arXiv:0710.2849 · doi:10.1088/0954-3899/35/4/044005
Abstract
The CERN NA57 experiment was designed to study the production of strange and multi-strange particles in heavy ion collisions at SPS energies; its physics programme is essentially completed. A review of the main results is presented.
