The results of a study of strange particle production in charged current $\bar{\nu}_{\mu} N$ interactions in the Fermilab 15 ft bubble chamber filled with a heavy $Ne-H_2$ mixture are presented. Production rates and average multiplicities of $K^0$'s and Λ's as functions of W 2 and Q 2 are given. The experimental data agree well with the quark-parton model predictions if a yield of 0.06 ± 0.02 of $K^0$'s and Λ's from charm production is included. Upper limits for D-meson production are given and the shape of the charmed quark fragmentation function is discussed. Inclusive production of the K ∗ (890) and Σ(1385) resonances is measured and it is shown that only about 5% of the K 0 mesons and Λ hyperons results from resonance decays. Relative production rates of neutral strange particles on proton and neutron targets are studied.

The study of neutral strange particle production in antineutrino-induced neutral current interactions is presented. The total multiplicity of neutral strange particles and the K 0 multiplicity in the current fragmentation region ( z >0.3) are used to estimate in two ways the coupling strength of the weak neutral current to the strange quark.

We have used the ratio between the production rates of $K^0$'s and $π^−$'s in antineutrino-nucleon interactions in the Fermilab 15 ft bubble chamber to measure the size of the SU (3) symmetry violation in the production of quark-antiquark pairs to be 0.27 ± 0.04. This value is significantly larger than the value obtained from a recent ep experiment. There is no apparent dependence of the $K^0$/$π^−$ ratio with $W^2 , Q ^2 , x_b$ or $p_T^2$ .

We present results on inclusive particle production in the antineutrino charged current induced hadron jets observed in the Fermilab 15 ft bubble chamber. Fractional energy distributions, particle ratios and average multiplicities of the hadrons in the jets are measured. Ratios between the inclusive production rates of different mesons in the jets are studied to seek evidence for the d-quark origin of the observed hadrons. Good over-all agreement with the hypothesis of d-quark fragmentation with universal fragmentation functions obeying isospin systematics is established.

The cross section of the quasi-elastic reactions\(\bar v_\mup \to \mu ^ +\Lambda (\Sigma ^0 )\) in the energy range 5–100 GeV is determined from Fermilab 15′ bubble chamber antineutrino data. TheQ2 analysis of quasi-elastic Λ events yieldsMA=1.0±0.3 GeV/c2 for the axial mass value. With zero µΛK0 events observed, the 90% confidence level upper limit\(\sigma (\bar v_\mup \to \mu ^ +\Lambda {\rm K}^0 )< 2.0 \cdot 10^{ - 40} cm^2 \) is obtained. At the same time, we found that the cross section of reaction\(\bar v_\mup \to \mu ^ +\Lambda {\rm K}^0+ m\pi ^0 \) is equal to\(\left( {3.9\begin{array}{*{20}c}{ + 1.6}\\{ - 1.3}\\ \end{array} } \right) \cdot 10^{ - 40} cm^2 \).
