Description
Leveraging on the injection of noble gases into the LHC accelerator beam-
pipe, LHCb has been collecting since 2015 proton- and lead-gas collisions, which
give access to the poorly explored high-x and moderate Q2 kinematic region. In
particular, studies of strangeness production provides information on hadroniza-
tion and serve as important inputs to models of particle production in cosmic
rays. In this contribution, recent results on strangeness production in fixed-
target collisions at LHCb will be presented, including studies for hyperon pro-
duction and polarization.
