We report the study of light baryon production in two-prong annihilation reactions due to antiprotons stopping in gaseous deuterium and detected by the OBELIX spectrometer (LEAR, CERN). A clear signal of the Delta(1232) production in binary reactions was found in both annihilation channels: (p) over bar d --> pi(-)Delta(+)(Delta(+)-->pi(0)p) and (p) over bar d --> pi(0)Delta(0)(Delta(0)-->pi(-)p). The annihilation probabilities for these reactions turned out to be Y = (1.01 +/- 0.08) X 10(-5) and Y =(1.12 +/- 0.20) X 10(-5), respectively.

Abstract
We report the study of light baryon production in two-prong annihilation reactions due to antiprotons stopping in gaseous deuterium and detected by the OBELIX spectrometer (LEAR, CERN). A clear signal of the Delta(1232) production in binary reactions was found in both annihilation channels: (p) over bar d --> pi(-)Delta(+)(Delta(+)-->pi(0)p) and (p) over bar d --> pi(0)Delta(0)(Delta(0)-->pi(-)p). The annihilation probabilities for these reactions turned out to be Y = (1.01 +/- 0.08) X 10(-5) and Y =(1.12 +/- 0.20) X 10(-5), respectively. In addition, the annihilation probability for the prototype Pontecorvo reaction (p) over bar d --> pi(-)p was measured with the best world statistics: Y = (1.46 +/- 0.08) X 10(-5).File | Dimensione | Formato | |
