Abstract
We examine the possibility that the xi(2230) meson is a member of the Pomeron trajectory. A method of connecting the xi --> p pbar decay width and the pp cross sections through the Pomeron residue function is presented. We have used a relativistic, singularity-free form factor to make the analytic continuation of the residue function between crossed channels. We predict that if the xi(2230) meson is a Pomeron, then it should have a xi --> p pbar decay width of about 2 MeV.
