Total Cross Sections

T, L, LT, LT', TT'


The following notation of the coincidence cross section will be used in our calculations. Further details can be found in D. Drechsel and L. Tiator, J. Phys. G 18 (1992) 449-497. (scanned version)

Channel:  K+ K0 K+S0 K0S+ K+S K0S0
Model input (on and off): Born K* (893)K1(1270)
Resonances in KL:S11(1650)P11(1710) P13(1720) D13(1900) (missing resonance)
