Rescattering Model Applied toY*Production

Abstract
The production angular distributions for Y1*(1385), Y0*(1520), and Y1*(1660) in Kp scattering are characterized by forward and backward peakings. As the single-particle-exchange model is unable to account for these features, we have attempted to explain them by considering rescattering square diagrams. We find that the use of a coincident-pole method leads to a simple prescription for evaluating the production angular distributions. Our results show agreement with the observed data when spin-parity assignments are 32+ for Y1*(1385) and 32 for Y*(1520,1660).
