Strangeness production in $O+O$ collisions at √sNN=7 TeV using various model approaches

We present the predictions of various observables for strange (K⁰S, $Λ$(Λ)) and multi-strange hadrons (Ξ⁻(Ξ⁺), $ϕ$, and Ω⁻(Ω⁺)) using the recently updated 3+1D hydrodynamics-based EPOS4 framework and AMPT model. In this study, we report the transverse momentum (pT) spectra, particle yields (dN/dy), and pT integrated yield ratios relative to pions for $O+O$ collisions at √sNN=7~TeV. The results reveal that there are indications of stronger radial flow in EPOS4 compared to AMPT. We observe a final state multiplicity overlap with small ($p+p$ and $p+Pb$) and large ($Pb+Pb$) collision systems.
