Abstract |
We study the feasibility of having the E*(1430) state, predicted within the chiral unitary approach and recently reported by the Belle Collaboration, as corresponding to a state of a nonmolecular nature. Starting from this assumption, since the state is observed in the pi A channel, we allow the coupling to this state and relate the coupling to K<overline>N and pi Eusing SU(3) symmetry arguments. We find that it is possible to have such a state with negligible coupling to the molecular components with a bare mass of the state very close to the physical mass of the E*(1430). Yet this has consequences on other observables, since the width obtained is extremely small and incompatible with the Belle observations, and it leads to abnormally large values of the K<overline>N effective range. Conversely, such mismatches do not appear for large values of the bare mass of the state, but in this case, we observe that the state develops large molecular components. While one can rule out a largely nonmolecular nature for this state, its properties and detailed nature will need further experimental developments which one can anticipate will be coming in the near future. |
