Canonical treatment of strangeness and light nuclei production

The canonical effects on strangeness and light nuclei production in high energy collisions are investigated, with a particular focus on low multiplicity events observed in small collision systems at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), and also in low energy collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). We analyzed the yields of various particles, such as pions, protons, lambdas, multi-strange hadrons and light nuclei, and their dependencies on the produced charged particle multiplicities using the Statistical Hadronization Model (SHM). Our findings indicate that the canonical treatment of strange and baryon quantum numbers are essential for describing the particle production in these collisions, particularly in small collision systems.
