从1955年到1957年用多板云室进行了两次V0粒子实验,共得V0约550个。按α-∈方法分类为Λ0的67个,为θ0的44个。其中产生于Pb板的Λ058个、θ038个;产生于Al板的Λ09个、θ06个。对这些V0粒子进行分析,得到下列结果。1.Λ0,θ0衰变时质量中心系中衰变角均匀分布。产生面与衰变面的关联角均匀分布。无自旋>1/2的迹象。2.对Pb核中出来的Λ0衰变看不出因宇称不守恒引起的不对称角分布。Al中产生的Λ0有不对称的倾向。3.由动量分布和产生角分布看,在产生重介子与超子对时超子多向后去。4.得平均寿命τ(Λ0)=(3.39-0.440.63)×10-10秒,τ(θ0)=(0.86-0.160.26)×10-10秒。5.N(Λ0)/N(θ0)~1.4 6.估计整个奇异粒子产生截面可合0.8mb/核子。对Pb,Al都合。7.按V0佔次粒子总数比例看,Pb原子核对产生V0来讲比Al原子核有效。Two experiments on V0 particles were carried out with a multiplate cloud chamber during 1955-1957. A total of 550 V0 particles have been found. 67 ∧0 and 44 θ0 particles are classified according the a-∈ method. Of them 58 ∧0 and 38 θ0 were produced in Pb, 9 ∧0 and 6 θ0 were produced in Al. The following results have been obtained: (1) The decay angle in the center of mass system, of ∧0 or θ0 is uniformly distributed. The correlation angle between the production plane and the decay plane is distributed also uniformly. No information can be obtained that the spin of the V0particles are larger than 1/2. (2) No asymmetry of angular dis-tribution is seen thus showing nonconservation of parity for the decays of the ∧0 particles produced in Pb. For ∧0 produced in Al some indication of asymmetry is noted. (3) The hyperon tends to go backward in the associated production process from the consideration of the momentum spectrum, and production angular distribution. (4) The following lifetimes are obtained: τ(Λ0)=(3.39-0.440.63)×10-10 sec,τ(θ0)=(0.86-0.160.26)×10-10 sec. (5) N(∧0):N(θ0)=1.4. (6) The total cross section for strange particle production is estimated to be of the order of 0.8 mb/nucleon, both for Pb and Al. (7) The Pb nucleus is more effective than the Al nucleus for producing a V0 particle, when we consider the percentage of the V0 with respect to the total number of secondary particles.
