Nucleosynthesis of light nuclei and hypernuclei in central Au+Au collisions at sNN =3 GeV

We analyze the experimental data on nuclei and hypernuclei yields recently obtained by the STAR collaboration. The hybrid dynamical and statistical approaches which have been developed previously are able to describe the experimental data reasonably. We discuss the intriguing difference between the yields of normal nuclei and hypernuclei which may be related to the properties of hypermatter at subnuclear densities. New (hyper)nuclei could be detected via particle correlations. Such measurements are important to pin down the production mechanism.
