Experimental Limits on the Width of the Reported Theta(1540)+

Abstract

Using data on K^+ collisions on xenon and deuterium we derive values and limits on the width of the reported Theta(1540)^+ exotic baryon resonance. The xenon experiment gives a width of 0.9\pm 0.3 MeV. The other experiments give upper limits in the range 1 - 4 MeV.
