[LINK] Strange antiparticles pop out of RHIC's quark-gluon plasma

[Kim Holburn]

This is the first time I have heard of strange quark interactions  
being observed.  Perhaps I haven't kept up with the latest in particle  
physics.

Great quote:
"Hypernuclei bring a third dimension into play, based on the  
strangeness quantum number of the nucleus, thus allowing the territory  
of antinuclei with nonzero strangeness."
