This book was released on 1980 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have studied the semi-inclusive reactions anti .nu.p .-->. .mu. V°X and .nu.p .-->. .mu.−V°X, and measured the fractional rate for producing one or more neutral strange particles in these reactions to be 0.16 +- 0.03 and 0.15 +- 0.04, respectively. We have observed K−(892) and .sigma.−(1385) production in anti .nu.p scattering at a few percent of the inclusive rate. No evidence for D° production was seen in the K/sub s/°.pi.pi.− final state. The distributions in the standard deep-inelastic kinematic variables are presented for events with strange particles and compared to those for the other charged current data. The fragmentation properties of events containing a K/sub s/° are in agreement with results from electroproduction experiments, and we have measured .integral.0 31 ° 1/N/sub T/ dn/dz dz/sub dz//sup dN/ dz = 0.029 +- 0.005, which is smaller than the prediction of the Field and Feynman fragmentation model.
