Figure 2 (c) shows the" missing mass" spectrum for events which have a K,'as the only visible collision product. The events in the KN region of phase space must be corrected for contamination from K,'K,'n, &'K'A',~'K'Z final states. This was easily done at 1. 89 BeV/c since all these reactions have been studied in a previous experi-ment at that momentum. The result shows there were (17+ 8) K,'K,'n events and (15+ 7) K K'p events, which compares favorabl. y with the equal number called for by the one-pion-exchange model. Provided the one-pion-exchange model is valid, one may place rather strict limits on the angular momentum of the KK system. Since the G parity of the wv system is even, we have" G=(-1)=+ 1, where I is the angular momentum of the KK system and I is the isotopic spin. The data in Fig. 2 (a) then suggest the low-energy cross section for vm KK is-2 mb for I= 0, I= 0 K pairs and-0. 6 mb for I= 1, 1.= 1 K pairs. Both cross sections drop to low values for energies of 100 MeV or more above threshold for the KK sys-tem.Eight examples of K+ K production [reaction (3) j observed in this experiment were not included in the foregoing analysis. The signature of these events is a charged K+ decay, which is sensitive to the K momentum spectrum. Additional bias may result from the difficulty in distinguishing some of these events from Z+ decays. In our
