Measurement of the π+π- → K/sub s/0K/sub s/0 scattering cross section

Description

Data from the reaction π-p → nK/sub s/0K/sub s/0 have been used to determine the cross section for the reaction π+π- → K/sub s/0K/sub s/0 by extrapolation to the pion pole. The reaction π+π- → K/sub s/0K/sub s/0 is dominated by S* and f0 production. The π+π- → K/sub s/0K/sub s/0 cross section is well below the S-wave unitarity limit in the S* (threshold) region. We discuss implications for the SU(3) scalar meson nonet and for ππ phase-shift analyses
