Experimental study of the subthreshold production of K+-mesons in proton-nucleus collisions
2000
Energy dependence of the differential cross sections for the production of K+-mesons with a momentum of 1.28 GeV/c (c is the speed of light) by protons incident on Be, Al, Cu, and Ta nuclei was measured for energies both above and below the K+-meson production threshold in pp collisions. Evidence is given for the dominance of the mechanism of direct production in the experiment. The characteristics of momentum distribution are determined for nucleons in the Be and Al nuclei up to 650 MeV/c. The data cannot be described in the model of nuclear spectral function.
