Charged Kaons ( K±) contribution to the same decay channel but are much less abundant at low energies. At much higher energies the decay of (4.64) K L 0 → π ± + e ± + ν ( −) e with a branching fraction of 38.7% is the chief contributor to the atmospheric ve and v ¯ e flux.

Conservation of energy requires that the sum of the total energies for the pions, E1 + E2, be equal to the original rest energy of the Kaon. Thus we can write 3.566 m π c 2 = E 1 + E 2 = 2 E 1 or E 1 = 1.783 m π c 2 From Eq. 20.14, the pion momentum is given by p 1 = 1 c [ ( 1.783 m π c 2) 2 − ( m π c 2) 2] 1 / 2 or p 1 = 1.476 m π c

Kaons are mesons formed by a strange (or anti-strange) quark and an up or down quark. They have strangeness of ± 1. Both charged Kaons (K+, K-) and neutral Kaons (K0, K0) exist. These neutral Kaons are distinguished by their strangeness: S(K0)=1, S(K0)=-1. The neutral Kaons offer a very interesting subject for studying.

In particle physics, a Kaon , also called a K meson and denoted K , is any of a group of four mesons distinguished by a quantum number called strangeness. In the quark model they are understood to be bound states of a strange quark (or antiquark) and an up or down antiquark (or quark). Kaons have proved to be a copious source of information on the nature of fun…

1* The neutral Kaons K 0 s and K 0 L represent symmetric and antisymmetric mixtures of the quark combinations down-antistrange and antidown-strange.. The charged Kaons are mesons which have a quark composition of up-antistrange for the positive Kaon and antiup-strange for the negative Kaon. They decay in about 10-8 seconds by the processes:.

Oct 18, 2003 . The Kaons shower is made by beam of protons from the CERN accelerator collided with appropriate energy into a target. After other particles are removed from the beam, the Kaons typically pass through the mainly empty spaces within each hydrogen atom in the bubble chamber without much interaction.

Basic theory Kaons are mesons formed by a strange (or anti-strange) quark and an up or down quark. They have strangeness of ± 1. Both charged Kaons (K+, K-) and neutral Kaons (K0, K0) exist.

Figure 11.24. The Kaon ( K+) is an unstable particle that spontaneously decays into a pion pair (π + and π°). Here the pions emerge from the decay in opposite directions along the same line. This decay is observed. A hypothetical alternate mode of decay is illustrated in Figure 11.25.
Describing the neutral Kaons is much more complex. There are two versions of this particle with the same mass but different decay lifetimes! One is called K-zero-short The other is called K-zero-long. These two particles are considered to be combinations of down-antistrange and antidown-strange quarks. These particles decay into pions by
