Three-body final states from\(\bar K\) capture in helium four and the P3/2 resonance Y *11 - Icapture in helium four and the P3/2 resonance Y *11 - I

Summary

The reaction\(\bar K\)4He→Λ⋆π3He He with the formation of the YY *1 resonance in the intermediate state is discussed. A kind of the impulse approximation is used with thet-matrix of the Breit-Wigner form corresponding to the P3/2 wave of the YY *1 . The reaction rates are calculated for the capture at rest with the relativistic pion kinematics. The calculated3He and pion-momentum distributions agree reasonably well with the data. The angular distribution of the three final-state particles and the problem of the Λ-3He final-state distortion are discussed.

Riassunto

Si discute la reazione\(\bar K\)4He→Λ⋆π3He He con formazione della risonanza Y *1 nello stato intermedio. Si usa un tipo di approssimazione dell’impulso in cui la matricet della formula di Breit-Wigner corrisponde all’onda P3/2 dell’Y *1 . Si calcolano i rapporti di reazione per la cattura in quiete con cinematica relativistica del pione. Le distribuzioni dell’impulso del3He e del π concordano abbastanza bene con i dati. Si discute la distribuzione angolare delle tre particelle dello stato finale ed il problema della distorsione dello stato finale Λ-3He.
