ABSTRACT
The production of K[Formula see text](892)[Formula see text] and [Formula see text](1020) mesons has been measured in p-Pb collisions at [Formula see text][Formula see text] 5.02 TeV. K[Formula see text] and [Formula see text] are reconstructed via their decay into charged hadrons with the ALICE detector in the rapidity range [Formula see text]. The transverse momentum spectra, measured as a function of the multiplicity, have a p[Formula see text] range from 0 to 15 GeV/c for K[Formula see text] and from 0.3 to 21 GeV/c for [Formula see text]. Integrated yields, mean transverse momenta and particle ratios are reported and compared with results in pp collisions at [Formula see text][Formula see text] 7 TeV and Pb-Pb collisions at [Formula see text][Formula see text] 2.76 TeV. In Pb-Pb and p-Pb collisions, K[Formula see text] and [Formula see text] probe the hadronic phase of the system and contribute to the study of particle formation mechanisms by comparison with other identified hadrons. For this purpose, the mean transverse momenta and the differential proton-to-[Formula see text] ratio are discussed as a function of the multiplicity of the event. The short-lived K[Formula see text] is measured to investigate re-scattering effects, believed to be related to the size of the system and to the lifetime of the hadronic phase.
