Abstract

Enhancement of strangeness production has for long been proposed as a promising signal of quark-gluon plasma production. A convenient indicator for it is the Wroblewski parameter which has been shown to be about a factor of 2 higher in heavy-ion collisions. Using a method proposed by us earlier, we obtained lattice QCD results for the Wroblewski parameter from our simulations of QCD with two light quarks both below and above the chiral transition. Our first principles based and parameter-free result compares well with the A-A data.
