Sv. Efremov et Ey. Parev, PRODUCTION OF K- MESONS IN PROTON-PROTON AND PROTON-NUCLEUS COLLISIONS AT VARIOUS ENERGIES, Physics of atomic nuclei, 57(3), 1994, pp. 532-541
Experimental data on the production of K- mesons in pp collisions are
analyzed, and a method is proposed for unified description of these da
ta in a broad interval of energies of primary protons. The production
of K- mesons in pA collisions is considered. Simple formulas for inclu
sive cross sections of production of K-mesons in these collisions are
presented. The results of the calculations carried out using these for
mulas are compared with the available experimental data and with the r
esults obtained within the framework of the model of independent quark
-gluon strings.
