Forward K+ production in subthreshold p A collisions at 1.0-GeV.

The ANKE collaboration Koptev, V. ; Buescher, Markus ; Junghans, H. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 87 (2001) 022301, 2001.
Inspire Record 556676 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.31765

K+ meson production in pA (A = C, Cu, Au) collisions has been studied using the ANKE spectrometer at an internal target position of the COSY-Juelich accelerator. The complete momentum spectrum of kaons emitted at forward angles, theta < 12 degrees, has been measured for a beam energy of T(p)=1.0 GeV, far below the free NN threshold of 1.58 GeV. The spectrum does not follow a thermal distribution at low kaon momenta and the larger momenta reflect a high degree of collectivity in the target nucleus.

Subthreshold production of low momentum K+ in p + C at 1.2-GeV.

Badala, A. ; Barbera, R. ; Bassi, M. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 80 (1998) 4863-4866, 1998.
Inspire Record 471821 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.19554

The double differential cross section of low momentum kaons ( ≤0.3GeV/c) from p+C collisions at subthreshold bombarding energies has been for the first time measured by the use of the CLAMSUD magnetic spectrometer installed at the CELSIUS storage ring. Invariant cross sections extracted from the data show a source rapidity shifted below the nucleon-nucleon rapidity, in agreement with the existence of multistep processes in the K+ production cross section. The total cross section of the inclusive reaction 12C(p,K+) at 1.2 GeV was extracted and compared with recent data systematics as a function of the proton bombarding energy.

K/pi production ratios from 450-GeV/c protons on beryllium.

The SPY collaboration Ambrosini, G ; Arsenescu, R ; Bernier, K ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 420 (1998) 225, 1998.
Inspire Record 470730 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.49585

This paper reports on the charged K / π production ratios and on the shape of the p T distributions of π fluxes measured by the SPY/NA56 experiment for 450 GeV/c proton interactions on beryllium targets. The present data cover a secondary momentum range from 7 GeV/c to 135 GeV/c in the forward direction and with p T values up to 600 MeV/c. An experimental accuracy of about 3% has been achieved. These results will reduce the uncertainty on the estimation of the ν e component of neutrino beams.

Kaon production in 200-GeV/nucleon nucleus-nucleus collisions

The HELIOS collaboration Akesson, T. ; Almehed, S. ; Angelis, A.L.S. ; et al.
Phys.Lett.B 296 (1992) 273-278, 1992.
Inspire Record 338072 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.28995

Results from the HELIOS External Spectrometer on kaon production in 200 GeV/ A S + W and p + W collisions are presented. The K π ratios are compared with results from a lower beam energy and are found to be remarkably similar. Evidence for secondary production of K + by meson-baryon rescattering is reviewed. Our results at y = 1.0–1.5 are compared with neutral strange particle results at midrapidity.
