description

Abstract We report evidence for the existence of a narrow p p state with a mass of 2.02 GeV/c2 and a width of about 0.02 GeV/c2, produced centrally in π+p(π−p) interactions at 20(12) GeV/c in several final states, proceeding via baryon exchange mechanism, and that could be interpreted as a baryonium candidate. The data come from the analysis of WA56 experiment made at the CERN Ω spectrometer.
