We present transverse momentum spectra, rapidity distribution and multiplicity of $ \Lambda$ -hyperons measured with the HADES spectrometer in reaction Ar(1.76AGeV) + KCl . The yield \Xi^{{-}}_{}$ is calculated from our previously reported /( \Sigma^{{0}}_{}$ ) ratio compared to other strange particle multiplicities. Employing a strangeness balance equation multiplicities yet unmeasured \Sigma^{{\pm}}_{}$ can be estimated. Finally statistical hadronization model used fit yields \pi^{-}_{}$ ,...

Employing the Bonn–Gatchina partial wave analysis framework (PWA), we have analyzed HADES data of reaction p(3.5GeV)+p→pK+Λ. This might contain information about kaonic cluster "ppK−" (with quantum numbers JP=0− and total isospin I=1/2) via its decay into pΛ. Due to interference effects in our coherent description data, a hypothetical K‾NN (or, specifically "ppK−") signal need not necessarily show up as pronounced feature (e.g. peak) an invariant mass spectrum like Our PWA includes variety...

We present data on charged kaons (K+-) and {\phi} mesons in Au(1.23A GeV)+Au collisions. It is the first simultaneous measurement of K central heavy-ion collisions below a kinetic beam energy 10A GeV. The {\phi}/K- multiplicity ratio found to be surprisingly high with value 0.52 +- 0.16 shows no dependence centrality collision. Consequently, different slopes K+ K- transverse-mass spectra can explained solely by feed- down, which substantially softens mesons. Hence, contrast commonly adapted...

Comparing the yields, scaling, shapes rapidity pt spectra to state-of-the-art transport model (UrQMD, HSD, IQMD) predictions, we find that none latter can simultaneously describe all observables with reasonable \c{hi}2 values.
