K0 Production in Hadronic Z0 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 K0 mesons measured using 1.3 million Z0 events by the OPAL experiment at LEP. Only the fragmentation function is implemented.
