Dynamical Theory of Mesons

J Schwinger - Physical Review, 1956 - APS
Considerations leading to a complete dynamical theory of K particles and hyperons are
outlined. The theory exploits several points of analogy between the π field and the …

Model of the strong couplings

M Gell-Mann - Physical Review, 1957 - APS
An attempt is made to construct a crude field theory of hyperons and K particles, which are
assumed to have spin ½ and spin 0, respectively. The parity of Λ is defined to be plus. Some …

Interactions of Negative Mesons

J Hornbostel, EO Salant - Physical Review, 1956 - APS
A detailed analysis of events in nuclear emulsions caused by K− mesons is given. Of 39 K−
mesons observed, 8 produced stars in flight, 1 underwent nuclear scattering, and 30 were …

K Mesons and Hyperons their strong and weak interactions

RH Dalitz - Reports on Progress in Physics, 1957 - iopscience.iop.org
This article surveys our empirical knowledge of the production processes, the nuclear
interactions and the decay processes of K particles and hyperons, as this appeared at the …

Photon decay of hyperons

RE Behrends - Physical Review, 1958 - APS
The photon mode of decay of the Σ+ and Λ 0 is examined. The lifetime and angular
distributions of the decay products are written in terms of the three physical parameters of …

Rare decays

JL Ritchie, SG Wojcicki - Reviews of modern physics, 1993 - APS
This article reviews the current situation in the field of rare K decays: the relevant
phenomenology, the present experimental situation, and prospects for the near future. Study …

Alternate Modes of Decay of Neutral Mesons

SB Treiman, RG Sachs - Physical Review, 1956 - APS
Consideration is given to the possibility that the θ 0 particle can decay via the" anomalous"
modes (e π ν) and (μ π ν). It is shown that, as a function of time, the decay rate for θ 0 …

Strong Interactions and Reactions of Hyperons and Heavy Mesons

G Morpurgo - Ann. Rev. Nuclear Sci., 1961 - osti.gov
Symmetry properties of strong interactions of K mesons and hyperons are reviewed,
including: experimental attempts to determine the relative parities of the strange particles; …

Theory and the Decay of the Hyperon

S Okubo, RE Marshak, ECG Sudarshan - Physical Review, 1959 - APS
The decay of the Λ hyperon is studied within the framework of the chirality-invariant four-
fermion interaction. It is shown that the branching ratio of the charged and neutral modes …

Theoretical Aspects of Nonleptonic Hyperon Decays

A Pais - Physical Review, 1961 - APS
Recent experimental results on nonleptonic hyperon decays are studied on the basis of a
doublet approximation for strong and weak interactions, with the implied suggestion that this …
