Double strangeness Ξ− production as a probe of nuclear equation of state at high densities

Double strangeness Ξ− production in Au+Au collisions at 2, 4, and 6 GeV/nucleon incident beam energies is studied with the pure hadron cascade version of a multi-phase transport model. It is found that due to larger nuclear compression, the model with the soft equation of state (EoS) gives larger yi...
