Description

The behavior of strange matter in the frame of the SU(3) Polyakov-loop extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model is considered. We discuss the appearance of a peak in the ratio of the number of strange mesons to non-strange mesons known as the "horn". We showed that the rise in the ratio $K^+/\pi^+$ appears in PNJL model when we build the $K^+/\pi^+$ ratio along the phase transition diagram. We considered how the matter propeties can affect to the behavior of the kaon-to-pion ratio.
