t-Channel couplings in Kaon-nucleon scattering

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

Hyperbolic dispersion relations are used to examine elasticKN and tintin1N amplitudes in the resonance region, and to extrapolate them to the annihilation channel. By evaluating the relations on a set of paths interior to the elastic channel physical regions, a spin separation oft-channel contributions is effected, and resonance couplings deduced. The results show clear evidence for effects attributable to exchanges withJ≦3, several of which have not previously been isolated. The special problems associated with the isoscalarS-wave states are discussed, and an estimate made of the ɛ-S * mixing angle.
