Strangelet Searches in High Energy Heavy Ion Collisions

In this contribution I concentrate on the recent results from experiment E864 at the BNL-AGS. E864’s recent analysis have achieved sensitivities of approximately $3\times {10}^{-8}$ per 10% central interaction for the production of charged strangelets and the first analysis for neutral strangelets is near completion. I put the results in the context of coalescence and quark gluon plasma strangelet production models.
