New Data on the ReactionK+p→π+pK0and a Detailed Comparison with the Veneziano Model

We have made detailed fits to new data on the reaction $K^{+}p\to {\pi }^{+}p{K}^0$ at 12 $\frac{\mathrm{GeV}}{c}$ using the generalized Veneziano model with several different sets of assumptions. We find that the quality of the fits depends to a large degree on the choice of kinematic factors, and we also find that a good fit can be obtained only by using five adjustable parameters, multiple trajectories, and several kinematic factors.
