Elastic single scatterings of K/sup -/ mesons by nuclei of a dilute G5 photographic emulsion were experimentally measured for energies between 30 and 80 Mev. Accurate numerical calculations of the differential scattering cross sections were carried out by solving a Klein-Gordon wave equation for an optical- model potential of the Woods-Saxon form. Experimental and theoretical results are in good agreement both on an absolute and on a relative-variation basis if the real part of the K--nuclear potential is attractive. The connection with low- energy K--nucleon scattering is discussed. (auth)
