Hyperon production in the reactions pn(p)→ K0 Λ p(p) and pp→ K+ Λ p — •Martin Krapp, Wolfgang Eyrich, Florian Hauenstein, Lukas Kober, Cecilia Pizzolotto, Wolfgang Schroeder, and Andreas Teufel — Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg
The near threshold production of hyperons by using a liquid hydrogen target is one of the main topics studied at the time-of-flight spectrometer COSY-TOF. Up to now the reactions pp→ K+ Λ p, K0 Σ+ p and K+ Σ0 p have been investigated in detail and led to an essential information gain about the reaction mechanism. In order to achieve more complete information about hyperon production near threshold in nucleon-nucleon reactions, the investigation has been extended to pn reactions by using a liquid deuterium target. The current status of the analysis of the reaction channel pn(p)→ K0 Λ p(p) will be presented. This includes reconstruction techniques, preliminary results from real data as well as Monte Carlo simulation including Fermi motion. Moreover a preliminary estimation of the cross section of the reaction will be presented.
