Insights into the spin-exotic π₁(1600) meson — •Fabian Krinner for the COMPASS collaboration — Technische Universität München - Physik Department - E18

The COMPASS experiment is a two-stage multi-purpose spectrometer. One of its main goals is the study of the light-meson spectrum. The flagship channel is the diffractive process π⁻p→π⁻ π⁺π⁻p, for which COMPASS has collected a large data sample of 46×10⁶ events.

One focus of our analysis lies on mesons that have spin-exotic quantum numbers forbidden for qq states. The controversial π₁(1600) with J^PC=1⁻⁺ quantum numbers is a prominent example. To search for this state, a detailed partial-wave analysis (PWA) was performed on the collected data employing a novel method, called freed-isobar PWA. This method not only reduces potential model bias of the PWA and but also allows us to study the dynamic amplitudes of the 2π subsystems with well-defined J^PC quantum numbers in the 3π final state. Using the freed-isobar PWA, we have studied the J^PC=1⁻⁺ wave with unprecedented level of detail and dimensionality.
