Abstract :
==========================
We present first measurement of (multi-)strange hadrons ($K_{s^{0}}, $\Lambda$, $\bar\Lambda$, $\Xi^{-}$, $\bar\Xi^{+}$, $\Omega^{-}$ and $\bar\Omega^{+}$) in d+Au collisions at $\sqrt{\s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV, collected by STAR in 2016. The multiplicity and rapidity dependence of (multi-)strange hadron transverse momentum ($p_{T}$) spectra, $p_{T}$-integrated yields (dN/dy), average transverse momentum ($\langle p_{T} \rangle $), baryon to meson ratio, and yield ratios to pions is presented. A strangeness enhancement for these particles as compared to pp collisions is observed. Multiplicity dependence of these results along with pp, Cu+Cu and Au+Au collision systems at same energy suggest that the (multi-)strange hadron production follows a smooth trend and is independent of collision systems. The nuclear modification factor ($R_{dAu}$) and rapidity asymmetry ($Y_{Asym}$) as a function of transverse momentum is studied to look for the nuclear effects. The results are also compared with PYTHIA8/Angantyr and Heavy Ion Jet Interaction Generator (HIJING) models to understand the collision dynamics.

Curves represent exponential fit function for $K^0_s$ and $\Lambda(\bar\Lambda)$, Boltzmann fit function for $\Xi^{-}(\bar\Xi^{+})$ and levy function for $\Omega^{-}(\bar\Omega^{+})$.

Conclusions :
=================
-
Multiplicity and Rapidity Dependence of (Multi-)strange Hadron production in d+Au collisions at $\sqrt{ \s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV using the STAR detector
-
Results suggest that d+Au system fills the gap between p+p and peripheral Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions
- Multiplicity dependence of particle production :
- Smooth transition particle production from p+p to A+A collisions
- dN/dy increases a function of multiplicity, and follows common trend : Particle production seems to be independent of collision system
- A hint of increase in $\langle p_{T} \rangle$ is observed as function of multiplicity
- $\langle p_{T} \rangle$ is larger for heavier particles : Hint of radial flow
-
Strangeness enhancement :
-
Strange particle yields scaled with average no. of nucleons are enhanced are compared to p+p collisions
-
Yield ratio of particles to pions with more strangeness content decrease faster from high to low multiplicity
-
-
Baryon to Meson ratio :
-
$\Lambda / K^0_s$ in 0-20% d+Au at intermediate pT is larger comparable to p+p collisions
-
$\Lambda / K^0_s$ in central d+Au is comparable to A+A peripheral collisions
-
-
Nuclear modification factor (RdAu) :
- Cronin like enhancement is observed for $K^0_S$, $\Lambda$ and $\Xi$ at intermediate pT
- Enhancement is stronger for baryons ($\Xi$, $\Lambda$ and p) compared to mesons ($K^0_S$, $\pi$ )
-
Rapidity dependence of Particle production :
-
dN/dy slightly decreases from negative (Au-going side) to positive (d-going side) rapidities for $K^0_s$, $\Lambda(\bar\Lambda)$ and $\Xi^{-}(\bar\Xi^{+})$
-
$\langle p_{T} \rangle$ is flat as function of rapidity for $K^0_s$, $\Lambda(\bar\Lambda)$ and $\Xi^{-}(\bar\Xi^{+})$
-
Rapidity asymmetry (YAsym), at low pT, YAsym >1, indicates the presence of nuclear effects
-
Asymmetry is more pronounced for higher rapidity region and for heavier mass particles
-
-
Comparison of the data with models
-
HIJING and PYTHIA8/Angantyr explains the trend but both the models underestimates the yield for all the particles except for $K^0_s$
-
All the models explains the trend but underestimates the $\langle p_{T} \rangle$ values for all particles.
