C67 (2003) 025202 | | Subject: | nucl-th | | Abstract: | The omega production in nucleon-nucleon collisions is described through the decay of intermediate nuclear resonances. Close to threshold the pp --> pp omega cross section is dominated by the off-shell production of omega mesons with masses far below the physical omega mass of 782 MeV. A crucial role plays thereby the N^*(1535) resonance. Due to a strong N omega decay mode this resonance leads to off-shell contributions which are in the vicinity of the threshold about one order of magnitude larger than the experimentally measurable contribution from only the omega peak. After a subtraction of the theoretical "background" from off-shell omega production the available data are accurately reproduced over the entire energy range from very close to threshold up to several GeV above threshold. The scenario of a weaker N^*(1535) --> N omega decay mode which is still consistent with electro- and photo-production data is discussed as well. In the latter case the off-shell contributions to the pp --> pp omega cross section are substantially reduced but the description of the experimental cross section is poor above threshold. | | Source: | arXiv, nucl-th/0208022 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
