Near threshold kaon-kaon interaction in the reactions e+ e- --> K+ K- gamma and e+ e- --> K0 K0bar gamma

Strong interactions between pairs of the K+ K- and K0 K0bar mesons can be studied in radiative decays of phi(1020) mesons. We present a theoretical model of the reactions e+ e- --> phi --> K+ K- gamma and e+ e- --> phi --> K0 K0bar gamma. The K+ K- and K0 K0bar effective mass dependence of the differential cross sections is derived. The total cross sections and the branching fractions for the two radiative phi decays are calculated.
