Results of resonance searches in the Xi(-)pi(-), Xi(-)pi(+), Xi;(+)pi(-), and Xi;(+)pi(+) invariant mass spectra in proton-proton collisions at sqrt[s]=17.2 GeV are presented. Evidence is shown for the existence of a narrow Xi(-)pi(-) baryon resonance with mass of 1.862+/-0.002 GeV/c(2) and width below the detector resolution of about 0.018 GeV/c(2). The significance is estimated to be above 4.2sigma. This state is a candidate for the hypothetical exotic Xi(--)(3/2) baryon with S=-2, I=3 / 2, and a quark content of (dsdsū). At the same mass, a peak is observed in the Xi(-)pi(+) spectrum which is a candidate for the Xi(0)(3/2) member of this isospin quartet with a quark content of (dsus[-]d). The corresponding antibaryon spectra also show enhancements at the same invariant mass.
给出了在质心能量√s = 17.2 GeV的质子-质子碰撞中,Ξ⁻π⁻、Ξ⁻π⁺、Ξ⁺π⁻和Ξ⁺π⁺不变质量谱的共振搜索结果。结果表明存在一个窄的Ξ⁻π⁻重子共振,其质量为1.862±0.002 GeV/c²,宽度低于探测器分辨率,约为0.018 GeV/c²。显著性估计高于4.2σ。这个态是假设的奇异Ξ⁻⁻(3/2)重子的候选者,其奇异数S = -2,同位旋I = 3 / 2,夸克组成为(dsdsū)。在相同质量处,在Ξ⁻π⁺谱中观察到一个峰,它是这个同位旋四重态中Ξ⁰(3/2)成员的候选者,夸克组成为(dsus⁻d)。相应的反重子谱在相同的不变质量处也显示出增强。
