We show how such a measurement can test for chemical non-equilibrium, and distinguish between a high temperature chemically equilibrated freeze-out from a supercooled freeze-out with an over-saturated phase space. We further explain how this measurement can be used to obtain a model-independent estimate of the effect of post-freezeout hadronic interactions.Proceedings for QM2005, BudapestNuclear TheoryHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyNuclear Experimenttext
