INTERACTIONS AND DECAYS OF HYPERONS PRODUCED IN K$sup -$ CAPTURE STARS AT REST

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4180925
The results of an investigation of hyperon interactions and decays are presented. Several inelastic interactions are described. The mean tree path for nuclear interactions of charged Houdry ThO/sub hyperons in emulsion was found to be 11 combination rat 4 cm in the energy range 10 to 200 Mev. Possible examples of a hyperon and pion produced in the interaction of a K/sup -/ at rest with two or more nucleons are presented. suggesting that this mode of interaction is not as rare as was previously supposed. A table of positively identified er studies. A l /sup 0/ hyperfragments is given. The decay of a Houdry ThO/sub / sup +/ via the proton mode and a Dalitz pair is described. Possible evidence is given for the decay of a er studies. A l /sup 0/hyperfragment via the tion /sup +/ mode. for the decay of a ( Houdry ThO/sub /sup + p) hyperfragment, for the decay process Houdry ThO/sub /sup +/ /sub 2/ were ob p + , and for the capture of Houdry ThO/sub /sup -/ with large energy release.
