"The High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer (HADES) data on strangeness production in Ar + KCl collisions at 1.76 A GeV are analyzed within a minimal statistical model. In the model the total negative strangeness content is fixed by the observed K+ multiplicities. Particles with negative strangeness are assumed to remain in chemical equilibrium with themselves and in thermal equilibrium with the environment until a common freeze-out. Exact strangeness conservation in each collision event is explicitly preserved. This implies that Xi baryons can be released only in events where two or more kaons are produced. An increase of the fireball volume due to application of a centrality trigger in HADES experiments is taken into account. We find that experimental ratios of K-/K+, Lambda/K+, and Sigma/K+ can be satisfactorily described provided in-medium potentials are taken into account. However, the calculated Xi(-)/Lambda/K+ ratio proves to be significantly smaller compared to the measured value (eight times less than the experimental median value and three times less than the lower error bar). Various scenarios to explain observed Xi enhancement are discussed. Arguments are given in favor of the Xi production in direct reactions. The rates of the possible production processes are estimated and compared."@en . . "Tom\u00E1\u0161ik, Boris" .
