Physics

Scientific paper

Strangeness production is a key measurement in the search for the Quark-Gluon Plasma. The capabilities of the STAR TPC to measure strangeness production in relativistic heavy ion collisions are discussed. A brief overview of the detector is given along with the primary physics goals of STAR, followed by a short introduction to strangeness physics and goals for the first year of running. STAR will be able to measure Λ, bar Λ , K+, K-, Ks0, ɸ, Ξ-, and bar Ξ - production from the first year of data.
