Experimental details and channel cross sections are presented for five K − deuterium bubble chamber experiments. Utilising the Fermi motion of the neutron the K − n cross sections are extracted over the c.m. energy range 1750–2200 MeV and where possible results are compared to related channels from other experiments.
CHANNEL CROSS SECTIONS FOR EACH OF THE FIVE EXPERIMENTS - NEUTRON MOTION WITHIN THE DEUTERON MEANS EACH DOES NOT CORRESPOND TO A UNIQUE C.M. ENERGY. CORRECTED FOR GLAUBER SCREENING.

We present results of a K − d experiment performed with the 81 cm Saclay deuterium bubble chamber which was exposed to a K − beam at 4 momenta between 680 and 840 MeV/ c at the CERN PS. Cross sections were measured for inelastic two- and three-body K − n reactions on the basis of 5200 events/mb. Resonance production in the three-body reactions is discussed. In addition, differential cross sections and polarisations are presented for inelastic two-body reactions.

Results are reported on K − -neutron interactions at c.m. energies near 2 GeV. The interactions are dominated by strong production of hyperon resonances, particularly Σ(1385), Λ(1405) and Λ(1520). Production cross sections and angular distributions are given for the Σ(1385), Λ(1405) and Λ(1520) and branching fractions to decay modes observed in the experiment are given for Σ(1385) and Λ(1520). The strong energy dependence of some features of the data suggests that s -channel effects are dominant.
