Abstract
This report describes the design and testing of a 1.17‐Bev/c separated K− beam designed in the fall of 1958 in connection with a 15‐in. hydrogen bubble chamber experiment. At the target the K−/π− ratio was 1/140. At the chamber, 4.0 K−‐meson decay lengths from the target, and after two stages of electromagnetic separation, the K−/π− ratio was 12.5, corresponding to a total pion suppression by a factor of about 105. The K− flux at the chamber was 0.87 K− mesons per 1010 protons impinging on the target.Keywords
