Upper limit for the cross section of the overlapping scalar resonances f0(980) and a0(980) produced in proton-proton collisions in the range of the reaction threshold

Utilizing a missing mass technique we investigate the pp --> ppX reaction scanning beam energies in the range permitting to create a mass close to that of the f0(980) and a0(980) s…
