Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
We present the first observation of K− and ϕ absorption within nuclear matter by means of π−-induced reactions on C and W targets at an incident beam momentum of 1.7 GeV/c studied with HADES at SIS18/GSI. The double ratio (K−/K+)W/(K−/K+)C is found to be 0.319±0.009(stat)+0.014−0.012(syst) indicating a larger absorption of K− in heavier targets as compared to lighter ones. The measured ϕ/K− ratios in π−+C and π−+W reactions within the HADES acceptance are found to be equal to 0.55±0.04(stat)+0.06−0.07(syst) and to 0.63±0.06(stat)+0.11−0.11(syst), respectively. The similar ratios measured in the two different reactions demonstrate for the first time experimentally that the dynamics of the ϕ meson in nuclear medium is strongly coupled to the K− dynamics. The large difference in the ϕ production off C and W nuclei is discussed in terms of a strong ϕN in-medium coupling. These results are relevant for the description of heavy-ion collisions and the structure of neutron stars.
