| Summary: | Strange hadron production provides information about the hadronisation process in high-energy hadron collisions. Strangeness enhancement has been interpreted as a signature of quark-gluon plasma formation in heavy-ion collisions, and recent observations of strangeness enhancement in small collision systems have challenged conventional hadronisation models. With its forward geometry and excellent particle identification capabilities, the LHCb detector is well-suited to study strangeness production in a unique kinematic region. Recent studies of strangeness production with the LHCb detector are presented, including measurements of strangeness enhancement in the charmand beauty-hadron systems. |
