Do we have three $S_{11}$ resonances in the second resonance region?

Abstract

We review the status of the S11S_{11} N^* resonances in light of some recent theoretical and phenomenological results. Whereas the quark model predicts two such resonances around 1.6 GeV, there is considerable evidence for a third S11S_{11} resonance in this energy range. This suggests that a KΣK\Sigma or KΛK\Lambda quasi-bound state may indeed exist below the kaon production threshold. We show that kaon production experiments, in particular K0K^0 photoproduction off nucleons, would be very sensitive to the existence of the third S11S_{11} resonance.
