The WA94 experiment uses the production of strange particles and
antiparticles to investigate the properties of hot hadronic matter
created in heavy-ion interactions. Lambda, <(Lambda)over bar>, Xi(-) and
<(Xi)over bar>(+) particle yields and transverse mass spectra are
presented for pS interactions. These results are compared with those
from SS interactions. Our results are also compared with those from pW
and SW interactions of the WA85 experiment. (C) 1997 Published by
