Description

The reactions K- p->πsup(-+) Σ(1385)sup(+-) are studied at an incident laboratory momentum of 8.25 GeV/c using data from a high statistics (approx.=180 events/μb) bubble chamber experiment. In the case of the reaction K- p->π- Σ(1385)+ an amplitude analysis is performed and the complete Σ(1385)+ spin density matrix is extracted as a function of t'. The results are compared with the predictions of the additive quark model. In the case of the reaction K- p->π+ Σ(1385)- the cross-sections for forward and backward production are determined.
