Abstract
From the study of the annihilation at rest <(p)over bar p> --> K+/- K- miss(0) pi(-/+)pi(+)pi(-) the production rates of the eta(1440) --> (K KL0)-K-+/- pi(-/+) were obtained for three different hydrogen target d ensities: liquid, gaseous at NTP and at low pressure (5 mbar). The rat e values are: f(eta(1440)) (LH) = (6.0 +/- 0.5) . 10(-4), f(eta(1440)) (NTP) = (2.9 +/- 0.4) . 10(-4) and f(eta(1440)) (5 mbar) = (1.0 +/- 0 .2) . 10(-4). From these results, the density dependence of the annihi lation fraction from the S-1(0) protonium level can be extracted direc tly.
