Summary
Two simple nuclear interactions that produce pairs of K-mesons are described and discussed. They are interpreted as examples of the processes\(n + p \to K^0 + \bar K^0 + n + p\) and\(n + p \to K^ + + \bar K^0 + n + n\) where\(\bar K^0 \) is the anti-particle of the K0-meson.
Riassunto
Si descrivono e discutono due semplici interazioni nucleari producenti coppie di mesoni K. Si interpretano come esempi dei processi\(n + p \to K^0 + \bar K^0 + n + p\) e\(n + p \to K^ + + \bar K^0 + n + n\), dove\(\bar K^0 \) è l’antiparticella del mesone K0.
