Description
Strange particle production and propagation is sensitive to the properties of the surrounding matter and thus a tool to study the equation-of-state and the phase structure of QCD matter. Recent results from the beam energy scan II of STAR will be summarized and put into perspective with the anticipated performance of CBM at FAIR. For performance verification, Lambda production at SIS18 with mCBM will be discussed.
