Evidence for nuclear interaction of a charged hyperon in flight

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

A Σ hyperon, arising from a 12 + 0p star, disappears in flight, presumably by interacting with a proton and producing a neutral hyperon and neutron.

Riassunto

Un iperone Σ originato da una stella 12 + 0p scompare in volo, presumibilmente per interazione con un protone con produzione di un iperone neutro e un neutrone

Evidence for the nuclear absorption of a high energy hyperon of approximately 300 MeV, with the production of an associated K-particle, has been given recently byBlock andKing:Phys.
