Abstract:

The reactions K^-p → Ξ^{0 -}(1320)K^{0 +}, Ξ^-(1320)K⁺(890), Ξ^{0 -}(1530) K^{0 -} and Ξ^{0 -}(1530)K^{0 +}(890) are studied at 4.2 GeV/c incident momentum. The data come from a high-statistics bubble chamber experiment with a sensitivity of ∼ 133 events/μb. Total anddifferential cross sections are presented. The results are compared to the SU(3)-related processes K⁺p → pK⁺ and K⁺p → pK⁺(890) in the backward hemisphere. In the forward hemisphere "forbidden" peaks are observed and current ideas about them are discussed. © 1981.

Abstract:

We have measured charged particle pair production in two-photon scattering at the e+e- storage ring PETRA. While the main source of such events is the production of lepton pairs, the presence of an additional process is clearly indicated by the measured invariant mass distribution of the two particles and their angular distributions. We determine that the excess is mainly due to the decay f0(1270)→π+π-. We derive a width Γ(f0→γγ)=3.2±0.2±0.6 keV (statistical and systematic). © 1981 Springer-Verlag.
