(Color online) Minimum bias $\overline{\Lambda}/\Lambda$ ratio compared to model calculations. On the deuteron side HIJING/BB shows the best agreement with the results, while on the Au side only AMPT and EPOS give a satisfactory description of the data.

$\overline{\Lambda}/\Lambda$ ratio and net $\Lambda$ and $\overline{\Lambda}$ yields as a function of collision centrality on both the deuteron (left) and the gold side (right). On the deuteron side, centrality is expressed by the number of collisions per deuteron participant, while on the gold side the number of Au participants is chosen. Only statistical errors are shown. The increase in baryon number transport with centrality, shown by the net $\Lambda$ yield, is matched by the increase of $\overline{\Lambda}$-$\Lambda$ pair production, thus keeping the $\overline{\Lambda}/\Lambda$ ratio constant over a wide centrality range.

(Color online) Net $\Lambda dN/dy$ for central, mid-central and peripheral events on both the deuteron and the Au side of the collision. The data are compared to calculations of the distribution of net baryons obtained with the Multichain model [16] with $\alpha$ = 2.9, scaled by 0.1 to account for the conversion from net baryons to net $\Lambda$. An overall scale uncertainty of 10% on the model curves from this conversion is not shown. See text for details.
