In nuclear emulsions, 289 K- mesons were observed. The mass amd lifetime of K- mesons is the same as that of K/sup +/ mesons. The K/sup -/ mean frec path in nuclear emulsion is geometric. Charge-exchange scattering and inelastic K-nucleus scattering are rare. Positive hyperons are emitted in 8% of K/sup -/ capture stars, negative hyperons in about 9%, hyperfragments in 5%. It is estimated that a LAMBDA /sup 0/ is trapped
