Abstract
Abstract Strangeness enhancement has always been considered as a potential signature for deconfining as well as chiral symmetry restoring quark-hadron phase transition. We obtain the ratios Λ Λ , Ξ Ξ and K + K − from a quark-gluon plasma (QGP) using a modified equation of state (EOS). Similarly these ratios are also obtained from a hadron gas (HG) by using a thermodynamically consistent equation of state (EOS) which incorporates the finite size, hard-core repulsive interactions among baryons as an excluded volume effect. We then suggest that the variations of these ratios either with the energy density or with baryon density can serve as a potential signature for detecting a QGP formation in the ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions.
