We have been searching for the Θ+ pentaquark via the π−p → K−X reaction at the J-PARC hadron facility. No peak structure was observed in the missing mass spectrum obtained at 1.92 GeV/c beam mo- mentum. The upper limit for the production cross section averaged over the scattering angle from 2◦ to 15◦ in the laboratory frame was derived to be 0.26 μb/sr. In order to make a more stringent constraint we have also performed a measurement at 2.0 GeV/c. Present analysis status of this new data is reported.

Abstract
We have been searching for the Θ+ pentaquark via the π−p → K−X reaction at the J-PARC hadron facility. No peak structure was observed in the missing mass spectrum obtained at 1.92 GeV/c beam mo- mentum. The upper limit for the production cross section averaged over the scattering angle from 2◦ to 15◦ in the laboratory frame was derived to be 0.26 μb/sr. In order to make a more stringent constraint we have also performed a measurement at 2.0 GeV/c. Present analysis status of this new data is reported.File in questo prodotto:
