• The QGP strangeness abundance is enhanced<br />
• As the QGP cools down, eventually the quarks recombine in<strong>to</strong> hadrons<br />
(“hadronization”)<br />
• The abundance of strange hadrons should also be enhanced<br />
• The enhancement should be larger for particles of higher strangeness<br />
