Experimental test of exchange degeneracy in hypercharge exchange reactions. [Helicity-flip and nonflip amplitudes, angular distribution, quark model]
Two pairs of line-reversed reactions ..pi../sup +/P ..-->.. K/sup +/..sigma../sup +/, K/sup -/p ..-->.. ..pi../sup -/..sigma../sup +/ and ..pi../sup +/p ..-->.. K/sup +/Y*/sup +/(1385), K/sup -/p ..-->.. ..pi../sup -/Y*/sup +/(1385) provide an experimental test of exchange degeneracy in hypercharge exchange reactions. From their study it is concluded that in contrast to the lower energy data, the 11.5 results for the two pairs of reactions are consistent with exchange degeneracy predictions for both helicity-flip and nonflip amplitudes. The Y(1385) decay angular distributions indicate that the quark model and Stodolsky--Sakurai predictions are in agreement with the main features of the data. However, small violations are observed at small momentum transfer. While the Y(1385) vertex is helicity-flip dominated, the nonvanishing of T/sub 3/2 - 1/2/ and T/sub -3/2 1/2/ suggests some finite helicity nonflip contribution in the forward direction. 23 references.
