Abstract

Using the CLEO II detector, we have obtained evidence for a new meson decaying to

D^{0}

K^{+}

. Its mass is 2573.

2_{- 1.6}^{+ 1.7}

±0.8±0.5 MeV/

c^{2}

and its width is

16_{- 4}^{+ 5}

±3 MeV/

c^{2}

. Although we do not establish its spin and parity, the new meson is consistent with predictions for an L=1, S=1,

J^{P}

=

2^{+}

charmed strange state.
