Abstract

The differential cross sections for the production of K(+) mesons in p-p interactions were measured at laboratory angles of 20, 30, and 40 deg and at incident proton energies of 2.54, 2.88, and 3.03 GeV. There appears to be no detectable center of mass angular dependence at either 2.54 or 2.88 GeV. It is found that at 2.54 GeV the data can be described very well by phase space (60% K sigma N, 40% K lambda N). However, the spectra obtained at 2.88 and 3.03 GeV confirm an earlier finding that there is a definite disagreement with phase space at these energies.
