Title: Comparison of the reaction anti pp $Yields$ K$sup 0$ anti K$sup 0$ at rest in hydrogen and deuterium. A test of S-state annihilation dominance

From the comparison of the frequency of antiproton annihilation at rest in two mesons in H/sub 2/ and D/sub 2/, the dominance of S-wave in pp annihilation at rest is confirmed, the P-wave contribution being less than 6% at the 95% confidence level. The apparent discrepancy between the channels pp yields K/sup o/K/sup o/ and pp yields pi pi is du e to the strong dependence of the annihilation dynamics from the angular momentum. (auth)
