Scientific paper

A hypothetical experiment to explore the possible existence of S-drops (small 'bags' of strange matter) is described. The first step is the production and detection of S-drops in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The proposed experiment would initially produce and detect S-drops of charge Z = -1 in present CERN and BNL facilities. The next step would be to grow small, positively charged S-drops to large stable S-drops through neutron capture in a confining apparatus. These two steps could provide the scientific basis for subsequent engineering studies of S-drops as an energy source.
