Abstract

The most abundantly produced hadron species in collisions at the BNL-AGS (nucleons, pions, kaons, antikaons and hyperons) are shown to be in accord with emission from a thermal resonance gas source of temperature MeV and baryochemical potential MeV, corresponding to about 1/3 standard nuclear density. Our analysis takes the isopin asymmetry of the initial state fully into account.
