TY - JOUR A1 - Schuldes, Heidi T1 - Strangeness production in Au(1.23A GeV)+Au collisions T2 - Nuclear Physics A N2 - We present first data on centrality dependent K+, K− and ϕ production in Au+Au collisions at a kinetic beam energy of 1.23A GeV measured with HADES. We observe no significant increase of the K+/K− and ϕ/K− multiplicity ratios with centrality of the collision. The measured ϕ/K− ratio is found to be larger than results at higher energies. The significant ϕ feed-down contribution to the K− yield substantially softens the measured transverse mass spectrum of K−, explaining its lower observed effective temperature in comparison to the one of K+.
