K{sub S}{sup 0} production at high Q{sup 2} in deep inelastic ep scattering at H1

Abstract

The production of K{sub S}{sup 0} mesons is studied using deep-inelastic scattering events (DIS) recorded with the H1 detector at the HERA ep collider. The measurements are performed in the phase space defined by the four-momentum transfer squared of the photon, 145 GeV{sup 2} < Q{sup 2}. The differential production cross sections of the K{sub S}{sup 0} meson are presented as function of the kinematic variables Q{sup 2} and x, the transverse momentum p{sub T} and the pseudorapidity {eta} of the particle in laboratory frame, and as function of the momentum fraction x{sub p}{sup BF} and transverse momentum p{sub T}{sup BF} in the Breit Frame. Moreover, the K{sub S}{sup 0} production rate is compared to the production of charged particles and to the production of DIS events in the same region of phase space. The data are compared to theoretical predictions, based on leading order Monte Carlo programs with matched parton showers. The Monte Carlo models are also used for studies of the flavour contribution to the K{sub S}{sup 0} production and parton density function dependence. (orig.)
