description

The photo-induced $K^*$ vector meson production is investigated for the study of the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance. This reaction is particularly suited to the isolation of the second pole in the $\Lambda(1405)$ region which couples dominantly to the $\bar K N$ channel. We obtain the mass distribution of the $\Lambda(1405)$ which peaks at 1420 MeV, and differs from the nominal one. Combined with several other reactions, like the $\pi^- p \to K^0 \pi \Sigma$ which favours the first pole, this detailed study will reveal a novel structure of the $\Lambda(1405)$ state.
