An analysis of the Λ p p system produced forward in the reaction K p → Λ p p at 18.5 GeV/ c is presented. The data come from an experiment using the CERN Ω′ spectrometer. Structures are observed in the Λ p mass spectrum and in the double moments H LMlm describing the decay of the Λ p system and the subsequent Λ decay, for L ⩽ 8. A partial wave analysis interprets these structures as resonances of spin parities 2 − and 3 + , masses and widths M = 2200 ± 40 MeV, Γ = 150 ± 30 MeV and M = 2330 ± 40 MeV, Γ = 150 ± 30 MeV respectively.

A Partial Wave Analysis of the $K^- \phi$ System Produced in the Reaction $K^- p \to K^+ K^- K^- p$ at 18.5-{GeV}/$c$

About 15 000 K − Φp events have been collected in the CERN Ω′ spectrometer. A partial-wave decomposition of the K − Φ system is performed. The 1 + SO + wave is dominant. The 0 − P0 + and 2 − P0 + waves are important and show resonant behaviour at ∼ 1.83 GeV (Γ ∼ 0.25 GeV) and ∼ 1.73 GeV (Γ ∼ 0.22 GeV) respectively. The first one can be interpreted as the second radial excitation of the kaon while the second one can be identified as one of the two L mesons.
