Search for Charge -2 Mesons in the Reaction ${\pi }^{-}d\to \left(p_s\right)X^{--}{p}_{\mathrm{forward}}$ at 13.2 GeV/c

A wide variety of final states are explored in the baryon exchange reactions ${\pi }^{-}d\to \left(p_s\right)X^{--}{p}_{\mathrm{forward}}$ and ${\pi }^{-}d\to \left(n_s\right)X^{-}{p}_{\mathrm{forward}}$, with a sensitivity of 240 events per microbarn per nucleon. We find no statistically significant evidence for charge -2 exotic mesons or any other new structure over a mass range extending from below the nucleon-antinucleon threshold to about 3.2 GeV.
