Strangeness Production at low $Q^2$ in Deep-Inelastic $ep$ Scattering at HERA

Experiment: H1 (HERA)

Inspire ID: 810046

Status: VALIDATED

Authors: - Andrii Verbytskyi

References: - Eur.Phys.J.C 61 (2009) 185-205 - DOI: 10.1140/epjc/s10052-009-0995-1 - arXiv: 0810.4036

Beams: p+ e-, p+ e+

Beam energies: (159.0, 159.0)GeV

Run details: - $e^+ p$ deep inelastic scattering with $p$ at 920~GeV, $e^+$ at 27.5 GeV \to $\sqrt{s} = 318~\GeV$

The production of neutral strange hadrons is investigated using deep-inelastic scattering events measured with the H1 detector at HERA. The measurements are made in the phase space defined by the negative four-momentum transfer squared of the photon $2 < Q^2 < 100 GeV^2$ and the inelasticity $0.1 < y < 0.6$. The $K_s$ and $\Lambda$ production cross sections and their ratios are determined. $K_s$ production is compared to the production of charged particles in the same region of phase space. The $\Lambda$ - anti-$\Lambda$ asymmetry is also measured and found to be consistent with zero. Predictions of leading order Monte Carlo programs are compared to the data.
