The luminosity of the analysed sample is determined using a novel technique, involving measurements of the beam currents, sizes ; positions, ; is found to be 6.8±1.0 μb-1. The differential prompt KS 0 production cross-section is measured as a function of the KS0 transverse momentum ; rapidity in the region 0
