A model for $J/\psi$ - kaon cross section

Abstract

We calculate the cross section for the dissociation of $J/\psi$ by kaons within the framework of a meson exchange model. We find that, depending on the values of the coupling constants used, the cross section can vary from 5 mb to 30 mb at $\sqrt{s}\sim5$ GeV.Comment: 4 pages, 3 eps figure
