Search for proton decay in Soudan 2.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:8136
The search for proton decay in the Soudan 2 detector is reported. Soudan 2 is a one kiloton iron tracking detector which is searching for proton decay in the Soudan mine in Minnesota. Through August 1996, Soudan 2 has a 3.3 kiloton-year fiducial exposures, divided into 6 data sets. Preliminary limits on the decay mode p {yields} {nu}K+, a description of the analysis progress on multihadronic final states, and and our tentative estimate of nuclear corrections are presented.
