Abstract

We study antiproton-proton annihilation at rest into πϕ\pi\phi and γϕ\gamma\phi. Rescattering by KK+KK\overline{K^*}K+K^*\overline{K} and ρ+ρ\rho^{+}\rho^{-} for ppπϕ\overline{p}p\rightarrow\pi\phi states is sizable, of order (0.90to2.6)×104(0.90\, {\rm to}\,2.6)\times 10^{-4} in the branching ratio, but smaller than experiment. For ppγϕ\overline{p}p\rightarrow\gamma\phi the rescattering contributions are negligible, but the γϕ\gamma\phi channel is well explained by a ρϕ\rho\phi intermediate state combined with vector meson dominance.
