φ production in annihilation at rest
Abstract We report on measurements of the branching ratios for φ production in p p annihilation at rest in H 2 gas. Branching ratios for φπ 0 , φη, φϱ 0 , φω and φπ + π − are determined for two data sets with different contributions of annihilations from S and P states of the p p system. The branching ratios are compared to corresponding annihilation modes where the φ is replaced by an ω meson. We conclude that φ production is in most reactions enhanced with respect to the expectation based on the OZI rule. In annihilations from the spin triplet ground state of antiprotonic hydrogen into φπ the OZI rule is violated dramatically.
The pseudoscalar mixing angle ΘPS from ν and ν′ production in annihiltion at rest
Abstract We have determined ratios of branching ratios for p p annihilations at rest into π0η and π0η′, into ηη and ηη′, and into ωη and ωη′. All reactins are observed in two different all-neutral final states. The ratios permit a determination of the pseudoscalar mixing angle. We find ΘPS = −(17.3±1.8)°.
