The K0/π- ratio and strangeness supression in v p and {Mathematical expression} charged current interactions

Abstract

Neutral kaon to negative pion production ratios from vp and {Mathematical expression} charged current interactions in BEBC are presented and compared with LUND fragmentation model predictions. Good agreement is obtained with a strangeness suppression factor λ=0.203±0.014(stat)±0.010(sys). No evidence is seen for an energy dependence of λ in our kinematic region. © 1985 Springer-Verlag
