Abstract
Multiplicities and spectra of strange particles (LAMBDA, LAMBDABAR, K( S)0, K+ and K-) produced in central S-32+S, S-32+Ag and S-32+Au collis ions at 200 GeV per nucleon are presented and compared with data on st range particle production in proton-nucleus and nucleon-nucleon intera ctions. It is shown that strangeness production in S-32+Ag collisions is enhanced by a factor of two, similar to that found previously in ce ntral S-32+S collisions.
