Abstract
This Letter reports the results of experimental studies designed to search for the 2m decay of the K, meson. Several previous experiments have served"~ to set an upper limit of 1/300 for the fraction of K2 's which decay into two charged pions. The present experiment, using spark chamber techniques, proposed to extend this limit.
