Abstract
Results on the measurement of inclusive K-S degrees, n and <(Lambda)ov er bar> production cross sections and rapidity distributions for antip roton interactions on lead, copper and carbon nuclear targets at beam momenta of 5.2, 7.0 and 8.8 GeV/c are reported. Simulations employing a conventional Intra-nuclear cascade model were able to reproduce the experimental results. Hence, no compelling evidence for the formation of exotic quark-gluon states of matter was found.
