Role of theN*(1535)in theJ/ψ→p¯ηpandJ/ψ→p¯K+Λreactions

Abstract

We study the J/{psi}{yields}p{eta}p and J/{psi}{yields}pK{sup +}{lambda} reactions with a unitary chiral approach. We find that the unitary chiral approach, which generates the N*(1535) dynamically, can describe the data reasonably well, particularly the ratio of the integrated cross sections. This study provides further support for the unitary chiral description of the N*(1535). We also discuss some subtle differences between the coupling constants determined from the unitary chiral approach and those determined from phenomenological studies.
