ON $lambda$$sup 0$ HYPERONS PRODUCED IN K$sup -$ INTERACTIONS WITH EMULSION NUCLEI

The energy spectrum of LAMBDA /sup 0/ particles produced by Kinteractions at rest in emulsion and found by following back-stopping pi /sup -/ mesons to the point of LAMBDA /sup 0/ decay was determined. The experimentally found spectrum is corrected interactions and the frequency of production of cryptofragments are estimated. An analysis of other experimental results indicates that scanning biases are present in samples of LAMBDA /sup 0/ decays found in emulsion by the area-scanning technique. These biases, differing from experiment to experiment, can lead to an apparent forward-backward asymmetry in the LAMBDA /sup 0/ decay and to an underestimation of the number of LAMBDA /sup 0/ particles emitted.
