Popis: The production rate of strange clusters in relativistic heavy ion collisions is estimated using a simplified coalescence model and the cascade code ARC, adjusting parameters to fit ordinary composite particle production. We predict that a hypothetical (ΛΛ)b would be produced at a rate dNdy of order 0.1 for central Au + Au collisions at Brookhaven AGS energies and midrapidity. The corresponding rate for the ΛΛ6He is 2 × 10−5. We also suggest some experimental possibilities for detecting such clusters.
