Abstract


The strange-quark occupation factor ($\gamma_s$) is determined from the
statistical fit of the multiplicity ratio $\mathrm{K}^+/\pi^+$ in a wide range
of nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}$). From this
single-strange-quark-subsystem, $\gamma_s(\sqrt{s_{NN}})$ was parametrized as a
damped trigonometric functionality and successfully implemented to the hadron
resonance gas model, at chemical semi-equilibrium. Various particle ratios
including $\mathrm{K}^-/\pi^-$, $\mathrm{\Lambda}/\pi^-$, and
$\mathrm{\bar{\Lambda}}/\pi^-$ are well reproduced. The phenomenology of
$\gamma_s(\sqrt{s_{NN}})$ suggests that, the hadrons ($\gamma_s$ raises) at
$\sqrt{s_{NN}} \simeq 7~$GeV seems to undergo a phase transition to a mixed
phase ($\gamma_s$ declines), which is then derived into partons ($\gamma_s$
remains unchanged with increasing $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$), at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} \simeq
20~$GeV.
