The Beam Energy Scan program at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) is searching for the QCD critical point. The main signal for the critical point is the kurtosis of the distribution of proton yields obtained on an event-by-event basis where one expects a peak at the critical point. However, its exact behavior is still an open question due to out-of-equilibrium effects and uncertainty in the equation of state. Here we use a simplistic hydrodynamic model that enforces strangeness-neutrality, selecting trajectories that pass close to the critical point. We vary the initial conditions to estimate the effect of out-of-equilibrium hydrodynamics on the kurtosis signal.

We review the status as regards the existence of three- and four-body bound states made of neutrons and $Lambda$ hyperons. For interesting cases, the coupling to neutral baryonic systems made of charged particles of different strangeness has been add
ressed. There are strong arguments showing that the $Lambda nn$ system has no bound states. $LambdaLambda nn$ strong stable states are not favored by our current knowledge of the strangeness $-1$ and $-2$ baryon-baryon interactions. However, a possible $Xi^- t$ quasibound state decaying to $LambdaLambda nn$ might exist in nature. Similarly, there is a broad agreement about the nonexistence of $LambdaLambda n$ bound states. However, the coupling to $Xi NN$ states opens the door to a resonance above the $LambdaLambda n$ threshold.
We study the properties of strange mesons in vacuum and in the hot nuclear medium within unitarized coupled-channel effective theories. We determine transition probabilities, cross sections and scattering lengths for strange mesons. These scattering
observables are of fundamental importance for understanding the dynamics of strangeness production and propagation in heavy-ion collisions.
Determining the nonperturbative $sbar{s}$ content of the nucleon has attracted considerable interest and been the subject of numerous experimental searches. These measurements used a variety of reactions and place important limits on the vector form
factors observed in parity-violating (PV) elastic scattering and the parton distributions determined by deep inelastic scattering (DIS). In spite of this progress, attempts to relate information obtained from elastic and DIS experiments have been sparse. To ameliorate this situation, we develop an interpolating model using light-front wave functions capable of computing both DIS and elastic observables. This framework is used to show that existing knowledge of DIS places significant restrictions on our wave functions. The result is that the predicted effects of nucleon strangeness on elastic observables are much smaller than those tolerated by direct fits to PV elastic scattering data alone. Using our model, we find $-0.024 le mu_s le 0.035$, and $-0.137 le rho^D_s le 0.081$ for the strange contributions to the nucleon magnetic moment and charge radius. The model we develop also independently predicts the nucleons strange spin content $Delta s$ and scalar density $langle N| bar{s}s | N rangle$, and for these we find agreement with previous determinations.
Previous approaches to the photo- and electro-production of strangeness off the proton, based upon effective hadronic Lagrangians, are extended here to incorporate the so called off-shell effects inherent to the fermions with spin >= 3/2. A formalism
for intermediate-state, spin 3/2, nucleonic and hyperonic resonances is presented and applied to the processes $gamma + p ---> K^{+} + Lambda$, for $E_{gamma}^{lab}$ <= 2.5 GeV, $e + p ---> e + K^+ + Lambda$, as well as the branching ratio for the crossed channel reaction $K^- + p ---> gamma + Lambda$, with stopped kaons. The sensitivity, from moderate to significant, of various observables to such effects are discussed.
The results of the microscopic transport calculations of $bar p$-nucleus interactions within a GiBUU model are presented. The dominating mechanism of hyperon production is the strangeness exchange processes $bar K N to Y pi$ and $bar K N to Xi K$. Th
e calculated rapidity spectra of $Xi$ hyperons are significantly shifted to forward rapidities with respect to the spectra of $S=-1$ hyperons. We argue that this shift should be a sensitive test for the possible exotic mechanisms of $bar p$-nucleus annihilation. The production of the double $Lambda$-hypernuclei by $Xi^-$ interaction with a secondary target is calculated.
