Threshold Strangeness Production in Proton-Proton Interactions at COSY-Jülich

Abstract

First experimental results of strangeness production at threshold in elementary p-p interactions are presented. Data have been taken at the new accelerator COSY-Jülich for the production of both hyperons as well as eta' mesons and K+K- meson pairs.
