YN scattering data: EI71
The experiment:
K- mesons were stopped in the 81 cm Saclay Hydrogen
Bubble Chamber at the CERN Proton-Synchroton.
1521 Σ- p events were recorded.
283 Σ+ p events were recorded.
After applying cut-off criteria 406 Σ- p events
and 121 Σ+ p events were analyzed.
The data:

Notes:
-
The cross sections are combined coulomb-nuclear cross sections.
-
Corrections for losses in angular regions due to cut-off criteria
are based on the assumption of isotropic angular distribution.
The table contains the cosines of the cut-off angles. This allows
model-contructors to take the possibility of non-isotropy of
the angular distrubution
in account. (See for example M.M. Nagels, Thesis, 1975)
-
The normalization uncertainties are not included.
-
There is an interesting footnote on the normalization of the
cross sections of DO66.
These should be renormalized with a factor 1.08
-
The numbers for the differential cross sections are taken from table 2.5
of M.M. Nagels, thesis University of Nijmegen, 1975. These numbers are
read from a graph.
