The ι(1440) and the pseudoscalar mesons — •Jun-Suhk Suh — Institut f"ur Strahlen- und Kernphysik der Universit"at Bonn, Nu"sallee 14-16, 53115 Bonn
The ι(1440) and the pseudoscalar mesons. Crystal Barrel results are reported for pp → π+π−π+π−η annihilation at rest in liquid hydrogen at LEAR. There is a clear signal of the ι(1440) in pp → π+π−π+π−η. The ι(1440) decays strongly to π+π−η, and dominantly to ησ, with the contribution to ησ being roughly a factor of two greater than that to a0(980)π. The radial excitations of the pseudoscalar mesons are considered: the ι(1440) may be the radial excitation of the η. There is a contradictory evidence to the existence of the η(1295).
