Description

The γ-spectrum originating from panti p annihilations at rest in liquid hydrogen was measured with two BGO spectrometers. A total of 24x106 γ's were accumulated. No narrow peaks indicating exotic states such as baryonium were observed. The upper limit for the branching ratio panti p→γ+X with 1040≤mx≤1770 MeV/c2 and with Γx≤25 MeV/c2 is less than 10-3 with more than 99.96% confidence. (orig.)
