Using the $K^+p\to \pi^+K^+n$ reaction to determine the $\Theta^+$ quantum numbers

Abstract

We study the K+pπ+K+nK^+p\to \pi^+K^+n reaction with some kinematics suited to the production of the Θ+\Theta^+ resonance recently observed and show that the measurement of cross sections and polarization observables can shed light on the spin,isospin and parity of the Θ+\Theta^+ state.
