The gamma n -> K+ K- n reaction on 12C has been studied by measuring both K+ and K- at forward angles. A sharp baryon resonance peak was observed at 1.54 +- 0.01 GeV with a width smaller than 25 MeV and a Gaussian significance of 4.6 sigma. The strangeness quantum number (S) of the baryon resonance is +1. It can be interpreted as a molecular meson-baryon resonance or alternatively as an exotic 5-quark state (uudd{s_bar}) that decays into a K+ and a neutron. The resonance is consistent with the lowest member of an anti-decuplet of baryons predicted by the chiral soliton model.

  1. $S$-wave $KN$ scattering in a renormalizable chiral effective field theory

    nucl-th 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A renormalizable covariant chiral EFT calculation of s-wave KN scattering yields a good description of I=1 phase shifts with a negative effective range while the I=0 channel remains weakly constrained.
