Mass and width of theρ0from anS-matrix approach toe+

Abstract: W e determine the mass width o f the meson by applying the S-matrix formalism t o the reaction e+ei n+n-in the timelike region. W e obtain M p = (757.5 f 1.5) MeV and rp = (142.5 * 3.5) MeV, which are significantly smaller than the values quoted by the Particle Data Group. These values are almost independent o f the specific form used t o model the background. PACS number(s): 14.40.Cs, 11.55.Bq. 13.40.Gp, 13.65.-ti

“…A similar parametrization insensitivity of the mass and width defined from the complex pole position has been noted in Ref. [6]. Note, however, for this latter choice, that the phase shift would not be π/2 at s = m ρ 2 and that the resultant form factor near s = m 2 ρ would not be of Breit-Wigner form.…”

“…Moreover, the ρ mass and width are themselves sensitive to the choice of F ρ (s) [1][2][3], and we wish to determine the systematic error in these quantities as well. Maltman et al have discussed the separation ofΠ ρω (s) into two contributions: one from the direct coupling of ω → 2π and the other from mixing, ω → ρ → 2π [6,4,5]. Such a separation is model dependent, and we shall not pursue it further.…”

“…There are however, former fit values for the Orsay phase which give information on its model dependence [45][46][47]. The reference value we choose is somewhat median and has the virtue to reproduce the threshold behavior predicted by Chiral Perturbation Theory with a good accuracy [26] ; however, from the other references just quoted, one might conclude that systematic errors of about 10…”
