Description
In this seminar the results obtained in the framework of the statistical model of hadronisation are reviewed. Emphasis is given to full-phase space strangeness production from elementary to heavy ion collisions (up to SPS energies) and to a recent new test of this approach in hadronic and e+e- collisions concerning transverse momentum spectra of identified hadrons. The results of this latter analysis are presented along with a newly proposed method to accurately take into account the effect of resonance decays. The transition from microcanonical to canonical and grand-canonical ensemble is discussed.

Organiser(s): Yiota Foka, Urs Wiedemann and Guy Paic
