Inclusive V0 Production in pp Interactions at 12 GeV/c

Results are presented on the inclusive reactions pp → K0X, pp → ΛX and pp → ΛX at an incident antiproton momentum of 12 GeV/c in BEBC. The cross sections are studied as functions of the Feynman scaling variable x, the rapidity, the transverse momentum of the V0 and the missing mass squared. The dependence of the Λ and Λ polarization on x are also studied. Comparisons with proton-proton data at 12 GeV/c are also made. Finally, events with two detected V0 are analyzed in order to study correlations arising from the production of two strange neutral particles. © 1977.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
