It is shown that data on strange particle production as a function of centrality in Au-Au collisions at sqrt(s)_{NN}= 200 GeV can be explained with a superposition of emission from a hadron gas at full chemical equilibrium (core) and from nucleon-nucleon collisions at the boundary (corona) of the overlapping region of the two colliding nuclei. This model nicely accounts for the enhancement of phi meson and strange particle production as a function of centrality observed in relativistic heavy ion collisions at that energy. The enhancement is mainly a geometrical effect, that is the increasing weight of the core with respect to corona for higher centrality, while strangeness canonical suppression in the core seems to play a role only in very peripheral collisions. This model, if confirmed at lower energy, would settle the long-standing problem of strangeness under-saturation in relativistic heavy ion collisions, parametrized by $gs$. Furthermore, it would give a unique tool to locate the onset of deconfinement in nuclear collisions both as a function of energy and centrality if this is to be associated to the onset of the formation of a fully equilibrated core.

The stopping behaviour of baryons in massive heavy ion collisions (at SPS, RHIC and LHC) is investigated within different microscopic models. At SPS-energies the predictions range from full stopping to virtually total transparency. Experimental data
are indicating strong stopping. The initial baryo-chemical potentials and temperatures at collider energies and their impact on the formation probability of strange baryon clusters and strangelets are discussed.
A study of the horn in the particle ratio $K^+/pi^+$ for central heavy-ion collisions as a function of the collision energy $sqrt{s}$ is presented. We analyse two different interpretations: the onset of deconfinement and the transition from a baryon-
to a meson-dominated hadron gas. We use a realistic equation of state (EOS), which includes both hadron and quark degrees-of-freedom. The Taub-adiabate procedure is followed to determine the system at the early stage. Our results do not support an explanation of the horn as due to the onset of deconfinement. Using only hadronic EOS we reproduced the energy dependence of the $K^+/pi^+$ and $Lambda/pi^-$ ratios employing an experimental parametrisation of the freeze-out curve. We observe a transition between a baryon- and a meson-dominated regime; however, the reproduction of the $K^+/pi^+$ and $Lambda/pi^-$ ratios as a function of $sqrt{s}$ is not completely satisfying. We finally propose a new idea for the interpretation of the data, the roll-over scheme, in which the scalar meson field $sigma$ has not reached the thermal equilibrium at freeze-out. The rool-over scheme for the equilibration of the $sigma$-field is based on the inflation mechanism. The non-equilibrium evolution of the scalar field influences the particle production, e.g. $K^+/pi^+$, however, the fixing of the free parameters in this model is still an open issue.
Within the microscopic transport, systematic investigation of the many facets of hyperons and hypernuclei up to strangeness $S = -2$ are carried out for $^{197}$Au + $^{197}$Au and $^{40}$Ca + $^{40}$Ca at the incident energy of $3A$ GeV. The spatial
, temporal and density distributions of hyperon production, absorption and freeze-out are thoroughly investigated. The rapidity and kinetic energy spectra of $Xi$ hyperons and double $Lambda$ hypernuclei are analyzed. It is revealed that the chemical balance of hyperon production is established in baryon-baryon channels while the opposite is found in baryon-meson channels. It turns out that the rapidity spectra of $^{4,5}_{LambdaLambda}$X are single-peak and more than two orders of magnitude lower than that of $^{3}_{Lambda}$H. Formation of double $Lambda$ hypernuclei through $Xi$ hypernuclei as intermediate states is also discussed in kinematics.
The role of Strangeness as a signal of the Quark Gluon Plasma in relativistic heavy ion experiments is discussed. The current experimental status is briefly presented. Several scenarios which explain the CERN data are discussed.
We use a geometric model for the hadron polarization with an emphasis on the rapidity dependence. It is based on the model of Brodsky, Gunion, and Kuhn and that of the Bjorken scaling. We make predictions for the rapidity dependence of the hadron pol
arization in the collision energy range 7.7-200 GeV by taking a few assumed forms of the parameters. The predictions can be tested by future experiments.
