  • We have extrapolated regeneration data obtained at other accelerators into our energy range in order to estimate the event-rates to be expected. The acceptance, for events within the first t~170 lifetimes has been calculated by Honte Carlo and is shown in Figure 2. Our measured KL spectrum (at 400 Gev/c) is shown in Figure 3. The folding of the spectrum, the acceptance, and the extrapolated (and interpolated) regeneration power yields the following: 7.

The relevant exponent in the A£ dependence will also be obtained at the 1% level 1.n several bins. In addition, we shall run for about 1 day \vith each target to measure
