D. Barberis et al., A MEASUREMENT OF THE BRANCHING FRACTIONS OF THE F(1)(1285) AND F(1)(1420) PRODUCED IN CENTRAL PP INTERACTIONS AT 450 GEV C/, Physics letters. Section B, 440(1-2), 1998, pp. 225-232
A study of the f(1)(1285) and f(1)(1420) produced in central pp intera
ctions has been performed. For the first time in a single experiment t
he branching fractions of both mesons in all major decay modes have be
en determined. Both the f(1)(1285) and f(1)(1420) are consistent with
being produced by double Pomeron exchange. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B
