We have measured the differential cross sections for the associated-production reactions π−p→K0Λ0 and π−p→K0Σ0 at 3, 4, 5, and 6 GeV/c, with a total of over 40 000 events. We find that both reactions have exponential forward peaks for −t≲0.4 (GeV/c)2, with no indication of forward-direction flattening or turnover; the slopes of the forward peaks show little if any variation with momentum; and the two cross sections are equal within experimental error from −t=1.2 (GeV/c)2 out to at least −t=2.0 (GeV/c)2.
