Description

Reliable cross sections for kaon-nucleon scattering are required for quantitatively estimating the effect of secondary interactions of cumulative K+ and K mesons on their yields from various nuclei in proton-nucleus (pA) interactions at proton energies between 9 and 10 GeV and between 15 and 70 GeV. The preparation of these cross sections for a simulation code was a priority task that was solved for the kaon-momentum range between 0.35 and 2.75 GeV/c.
