Abstract
The results of a search for a possible evidence of a π+π+ resonant state in the n̄p → π+π+π- annihilation reaction with data collected by the OBELIX Experiment are presented. The study has been performed by means of a partial wave analysis in the frame of the isobar model. Production fractions for a possible π+π+ resonance have been evaluated. The observed effects at the π+π+ threshold may be described reasonably well by the contributions of f2(1270), f0(1500), f2(1565) and ρ (1450) states and their interferences, but a meaningful statistical indication for a π+π+ scalar state at about 1400 MeV emerges from the analysis.
