Charm decay as a source of multistrange hadrons

We describe a newly formulated approach to account for charm production and decay in Statistical Hadronization approach. Considering Pb-Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV at LHC we show that charm hadron decays can be a significant contributor to the multistrange hadron abundance. We discuss the magnitude of...

Summary:We describe a newly formulated approach to account for charm production and decay in Statistical Hadronization approach. Considering Pb-Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV at LHC we show that charm hadron decays can be a significant contributor to the multistrange hadron abundance. We discuss the magnitude of expected effects as a function of charm yield.
