Determination of the spin tripletpΛscattering length from the final state interaction in thepppK+et al.

Abstract: The pp → pK + Λ reaction has been measured with the COSY-TOF detector at a beam momentum of 2.7 GeV/c. The polarized proton beam enables the measurement of the beam analyzing power by the asymmetry of the produced kaon (A K N ). This observable allows the pΛ spin triplet scattering length to be extracted for the first time model independently from the final-state interaction in the reaction. The obtained value is a t = (−2.55 +0.72 −1.39 stat. ± 0.6 syst. ± 0.3 theo. ) fm. This value is compatible with theoret… Show more

“…In particular, this concerns the relative strength of the Λp interaction in the 1 S 0 and 3 S 1 channels. Efforts at the COSY accelerator in Jülich to determine the strength of the spin-triplet Λp interaction from the final-state interaction in the reaction pp → K + Λp [99] suffered from low statistics and, unfortunately, could not provide the desired and urgently needed stringent constraint. Given the lack of appropriate spin-dependent observables, it is fixed in our studies by considering the hypertriton separation energy [1,9,15].…”

“…However, the isolation of the spin-singlet amplitude requires a double-polarization experiment [59]. Efforts at the COSY accelerator in Jülich to determine the strength of the spintriplet Λp interaction [60], where only single polarization is required, already suffered from low statistics and, unfortunately, did not provide robust results.…”

“…It was remarked already in the papers on the dispersion integral approach to the analysis of pp → K + Λp data [8][9][10] that the value obtained for the Λp scattering length could be distorted through a reflection of the production of N * isobars in the K + Λ channel. This is typically a problem of limited energy where the Dalitz plot is not sufficiently open and the dependence on the three invariant masses cannot be independently determined.…”

“…III to the question of whether pp → π + pn could in principle be used to investigate the properties of the low energy pn system. Though data on pp → K + Λp have been directly fitted to determine the Λp scattering length [7], an alterna-tive approach has been advocated that uses a dispersion relation in an approximate treatment that only requires data over a limited range in Q [8][9][10]. In the derivation of this formalism it is assumed that there is no true bound state pole and in Sec.…”
