Study of the centrally producer ?? andK $$\bar K$$ systems at 85 and 300 GeV/c

We have studied the ππ andK\(\bar K\) systems centrally produced in proton proton collisions at 300 GeV/c and π+/p proton collisions at 85 GeV/c using the CERN Ω spectrometer. Clear evidence forS*/fo(975) production is observed. An analysis performed on the π+ π− mass spectrum in the 1.0 GeV region, using a coupled channel formalism, shows that it is possible to describe theS*/fo(975) effect with one single resonance once interference of theS*/fo(975) with theS-wave background is introduced. The resultingS*/fo(975) parameters aremo=979±4MeV,gπ=0.28±0.04,gK=0.56±0.18 corresponding to a pole position on sheet II at (1001±2)−i(36±4) MeV. Evidence is also found for a structure having a mass of 1472±12 MeV and a width of 195±33 MeV.
