Abstract In this article, we have reported the transverse momentum ( p T ) spectra and nuclear modification factors of (multi-) strange hadrons produced in Au+Au collisions at s NN = 200 GeV using the Monte Carlo HYDJET++ model. For the present study, we have tuned few of the input parameters, in both soft as well as hard parts, of the model to appropriately describe the production of (multi-) strange hadrons. We have presented the p T -spectra of (multi-) strange hadrons in different centrality intervals. On comparing p T -spectra with the experimental data, we observe that the model does not achieve thermal equilibrium for kaons toward peripheral collisions and for omega baryons for all the centrality intervals. The R AA results obtained by the model reproduce the experimental data well while the R CP results show less suppression at higher p T than the experimental data. Further, HYDJET++ results are also compared with different theoretical models and discussed, wherever possible.
