Description

An estimate of the formation rate of the strangeness S = -1 dibaryons Dsub(s) and Dsub(t) via ''Σ--capture'' in a Σ-d atom is presented. Reasonable branching ratios are expected for formation from the atomic P orbitals. The Σ-d atom experiment is found to be sensitive to the formation of Dsub(s) dibaryons in a mass range of only 10 MeV starting at the Σ-p mass, while for the Dsub(t) dibaryons in a range of 30 MeV is expected.
