Energy dependence of the Lambda / Sigma0 production cross-section ratio in p p interactions
2004
Measurements of the near threshold Lambda and Sigma0 production via the pp-->pK+Lambda/Sigma0 reaction at COSY--11 have shown that the Lambda/Sigma0 cross section ratio exceeds the value at high excess energies Q>=300 MeV by an order of magnitude. For a better understanding additional data have been taken between 13 MeV and 60 MeV excess energy. Within the first 20 MeV excess energy a strong decrease of the cross section ratio is observed, with a less steep decrease in the higher excess energy range. A description of the data with a parametrisation including p-Y final state interactions suggests a much smaller p-Sigma0 FSI compared to the p-Lambda system.
