Abstract
Measurements have been made in the OPAL experiment at LEP of the inclu sive production of strange vector phi(1020) and K(892)(0) mesons, and the tenser meson K-2 (1430)(0) The overall production rates per hadr onic Z(0) decay have been determined to be 0.100 +/- 0.004(stat.) +/- 0.007(syst.) phi(1020) mesons, 0.74 +/- 0.03(stat.) +/- 0.03(syst.) K (892)(0) mesons and (for x(E) < 0.3) 0.19 +/- 0.04(stat.) +/- 0.06(sys t.) K-2 (1430)(0) mesons. The measurements for the vector states upda te previously published results based on lower statistics, while the K -2(1430)(0) rate represents the first direct measurement ment of a st range tenser state in Z(0) decay. For the vector states, both the over all production rates and normalised differential cross sections, with respect to the scaled energy variable x(E), have been compared to JETS ET and HERWIG predictions. The peak positions in the xi = In(1/x(p)) d istributions have been measured and compared to measurements of other hadron states.
