Does the Sigma(1580)3/2- resonance exist?

Nuclear Experiment 2008-11-26 v3

Abstract

Precise new data for the reaction Kpπ0ΛK^- p \to \pi^0 \Lambda are presented in the c.m. energy range 1565 to 1600 MeV. Our analysis of these data sheds new light on claims for the Σ(1580)3/2\Sigma(1580){3/2}^- resonance, which (if it exists with the specified quantum numbers) must be an exotic baryon because of its very low mass. Our results show no evidence for this state.
