Abstract :
Characteristics and performance of the Kaon Monitor of the DEAR experiment at the DAΦNE collider of Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati are described. The full TDC and ADC information collected from the detectors of the setup allows a clean observation of the charged kaon pairs from φ-decay by means of their different arrival times with respect to the background particles. The number of detected kaons can be used to obtain an absolute luminosity measurement in the DEAR interaction point at DAΦNE.
