We present a calculation of the matrix elements of the most general set of
Delta S = 2 dimension-six four-fermion operators. The values of the matrix
elements are given in terms of the corresponding B-parameters. Out results
can be used in many phenomenological applications, since the operators cons
idered here give important contributions to K-0-(K) over bar(0) mixing in s
everal extensions of the Standard Model (supersymmetry, left-right symmetri
c models, multi-Higgs models etc.). The determination of the matrix element
s improves the accuracy of the phenomenological analyses intended to put bo
unds on basic parameters of the different models, as for example the patter
n of the sfermion mass matrices. The calculation has been pet-formed on the
lattice, using the tree-level improved Clover action at two different valu
es of the strong coupling constant (beta = 6/g(0)(2)(a)= 6.0 and 6.2, corre
sponding to a(-1) = 2.1 and 2.7 GeV respectively), in the quenched approxim
ation. The renormalization constants and mixing coefficients of the lattice
operators have been obtained non-perturbatively. (C) 1999 Published by Els
