ϕ decay: A relevant source forKproduction at energies available at the GSI Schwerionen-Synchrotron (SIS)?

Abstract: We present phase space distributions and multiplicities of K + , K − , and φ mesons produced in Ar + KCl reactions at a kinetic beam energy of 1.756 GeV/nucleon and measured with the HADES spectrometer. The inverse slope parameters and yields of kaons supplement the systematics of previous measurements. The percentage of K − mesons coming from φ decay is found to be 18 ± 7%.

“…[37]) and kinetic slope parameters in the range of 70-95 MeV [37], that is, of similar magnitude. In particular, the slope at midrapidity of the φ meson was found to be 84 ± 8 MeV in the K + K − channel [35]. Unfortunately, our statistics is not large enough to allow a tight selection around the ω pole mass and thus obtain the slope for a clean ω sample.…”

“…In particular, from our K + − K − correlation analysis [35], a LVL1 φ multiplicity of M φ = [2.6 ± 0.7(stat) ± 0.1(sys)] × 10 −4 has been found, as well as a transverse-mass slope at midrapidity of T φ = 84 ± 8 MeV. Together with the ω multiplicity, this gives a φ/ω ratio of R φ/ω = 0.043 +0.050 −0.015 (stat) ± 0.011(sys).…”

“…26 represent the measurements for Au+Au collisions. This enhancement of the ratio was interpreted by the HADES [172] and FOPI collaborations as the evidence of a strong feed-down from the φ production to the K − production, down-scaling the importance of processes driven by strangeness-exchange, such as Λ + π → K − + N for the K − production [173,174]. This interpretation was also supported by the fact that, by looking at the p T distributions obtained for K + , K − and φ in Au + Au collisions at 1.23 AGeV measured by HADES and interpreting the slope of the spectra as kinematic temperatures, the K − slope resembles a mixture of K + and φ slopes, with weights consistent with the φ/K − ratio [170].…”

“…From comparisons with transport-model simulations an average repulsive potential of 20 ± 5 MeV was inferred. The HADES Collaboration reported on a measurement of K 0 S in a mediumsized colliding system, Ar + KCl, at a beam energy of 1.76 GeV/nucleon [10] (see also [11] for the K + data). An average potential value of 39 +8 −2 MeV was inferred from these data.…”
