Description

Strange hadron production provides information about the hadronization
process in high-energy hadron collisions. Strangeness enhancement has been
interpreted as a signature of quark-gluon plasma formation in heavy-ion col-
lisions, and recent observations of strangeness enhancement in small collisions
systems have challenged conventional hadronization models. With its forward
geometry and excellent particle identification capabilities, the LHCb detector
is well-suited to study strangeness production in a unique kinematic region.
Recent studies of strangeness production with the LHCb detector will be pre-
sented, including measurements of strangeness enhancement in the charm- and
beauty-hadron systems
