  We considered the kaon absorption from atomic states into nucleus. We found
that the nuclear density probed by the atomic kaon significantly depends on the
kaon orbit. Then, we reexamined the meanings of the observed strengths of
one-body and two-body kaon absorption, and investigated the effects to the
formation spectra of kaon bound states by in-flight ($K^-,p$) reactions. As a
natural consequence, if the atomic kaon probes the smaller nuclear density, the
ratio of the two-body absorption at nuclear center is larger than the observed
value, and the depth of the imaginary potential is deeper even at smaller kaon
energies as in kaonic nuclear states because of the large phase space for the
two-body processes.
