New high statistics data on K−p → 2-body final states over the c.m. energy range 1720 to 1796 MeV

Abstract

Data are presented from a high statistics bubble chamber experiment to K −p interactions over the c.m. energy range 1720 to 1796 MeV. Channel cross sections, differential cross sections and, where appropriate, polarisation distributions have been obtained for the final states K − p, K 0 n, π 0Λ and π ±Σ ∓ . These data are compared with those from previously published experiments and with the predictions from the RL-IC 77 partial-wave amplitudes for each of these channels.
