Abstract

The yield for the multistrange [Formula presented] hyperon has been measured in [Formula presented] [Formula presented] collisions via reconstruction of its decay products [Formula presented] and [Formula presented], the latter also being reconstructed from its daughter tracks of [Formula presented] and [Formula presented]. The measurement is rather close to the threshold for [Formula presented] production and therefore provides an important test of model predictions. The measured yield for [Formula presented] and [Formula presented] are compared for several centralities. In central collisions the [Formula presented] yield is found to be in excellent agreement with statistical and transport model predictions, suggesting that multistrange hadron production approaches chemical equilibrium in high baryon density nuclear matter.
