Strangeness Production

Strangeness production refers to the creation of particles containing a property known as "strangeness," which is associated with certain types of quarks. In high-energy physics, such as in particle collisions, strangeness can emerge when quarks combine to form new particles, like kaons or hyperons. This process reveals fundamental aspects of the universe's structure and the strong force that binds particles together. Studying strangeness production helps scientists understand how matter behaves under extreme conditions, contributing to our knowledge of fundamental forces and the early universe.
