πN and ηp deexcitation channels of the N* and Δ baryonic resonances between 1470 and 1680 MeV -: art. no. 034004

Two reactions, pp -> ppX and pp -> p pi X+, are used to study the 1.47 <= M <= 1.680 GeV baryonic mass range. Three different final states are considered in the invariant masses: N-* or Delta(+),n pi(+) or p pi(0), and p eta. The last two channels are defined by software cuts applied to the missing mass of the first reaction. Several narrow structures are extracted with widths sigma(Gamma) varying between 3 and 9 MeV. Some structures are observed in one channel but not in another. Such nonobservation may be due either to the spectrometer momenta limits or to the physics (e.g., no such disintegration channel is allowed from the narrow state considered). We tentatively conclude that the broad Particle Data Group (PDG) baryonic resonances-N(1520)D-13,N(1535)S-11,Delta(1600)P-33,N(1650)S-11, and N(1675)D-15-are collective states built from several narrow and weakly excited resonances, each having a (much) smaller width than the one reported by PDG.
