Abstract
The hadronic annihilation branching-ratios in quasi-two-body final states have been obtained from the observation of the reactions (p) over barp --> pi(+)pi(-)pi(0), K(+)K(-)pi(0), K(+/-)pi(-/+)K(0) at rest in hydrogen targets at different densities. The enhancement or suppression of specific hadronic channels connected to dynamical selection rules is observed in the production of different resonances both in protonium S and P-waves, systematically investigated for the first time. Besides the well known rho(770)pi and a(2)(1320) pi enhancement from (3)S(1) and (1)S(0) partial waves, the dominance of one isospin source in K*(892) (K) over bar production, well established from S-waves, is confirmed also in P-waves ((1)S(0), I = 0; (3)S(1), I = 1; (1)P(1), I = 0; (3)P(1), I = 0; (3)P(2), I = 1). In addition, the experimental data clearly show a strong suppression of phi(1020)pi and a(0)(980)pi final states from P-wave which has a remarkable coincidence with K*(892) (K) over bar pattern production.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
