Abstract
Kaon factories would provide beams 100–1000 times more intense than those available at present from accelerators in the 5–30 GeV range. Beams of slow K’s and \(\bar p\) and of medium-energy νe’s would be of particular interest. Significant new information would be made accessible on weak decay processes and symmetry violations, the baryonic resonance spectrum, the kaon-nuclear interaction, hypernuclei, exotic atoms, antiproton interactions and neutrino behaviour. The various accelerators proposed include both fast-cycling synchrotrons providing 30–100 μA proton beams in the 10–30 GeV range and superconducting isochronous ring cyclotrons giving 100–400 μA at up to 8 GeV.
