Abstract

The thermodynamics is studied of a quark plasma in equilibrium with a hadronic phase assuming strangeness conservation. It turns out that the presence of strangeness conservation does not lead to a discontinuity in the chemical potential μ s associated with the strange particles but to a coexistence region in the phase diagram. The discontinuity computed before is in fact the difference in the values of μ s at the boundaries of the coexistence region keeping T fixed.
