Dv. Vavilov et al., INVESTIGATION OF THE P-][SIGMA-0K+]+N REACTION AT THE PROTON ENERGY EP=70 GEV(N), Physics of atomic nuclei, 57(8), 1994, pp. 1376-1378
The p + N --> [SIGMA0K+] + N reaction was studied in experiments using
the SPHINX detector placed in the 70-GeV proton beam of the IHEP acce
lerator. In the effective mass spectrum of the M(SIGMA0K+) system prod
uced in the coherent diffractive transition, a clear peak with mass M
= 1999 +/- 7 MeV and width GAMMA = 91 +/- 17 MeV was observed in addit
ion to the near-threshold structure with mass M congruent-to 1800 MeV.
