OPAL_1995_I393503

$K^0$ Production in Hadronic $Z^0$ Decays
Experiment: OPAL (LEP)
Inspire ID: 393503
Status: VALIDATED
Authors:
  • Peter Richardson
References:
  • Z.Phys. C67 (1995) 389-402, 1995
Beams: e+ e-
Beam energies: (45.6, 45.6) GeV
Run details:
  • Hadronic Z decay events generated on the Z pole ($\sqrt{s} = 91.2$ GeV)

The production of $K^0$ mesons measured using 1.3 million $Z^0$ events by the OPAL experiment at LEP. Only the fragmentation function is implemented.
