Abstract
This report summarizes the study of the reaction over the range of energies from 1.0 to 1.7 BeV/c. The reaction is shown to be dominated by the final state from threshold (1.08 BeV/c) to the highest energy available in this experiment. The best values for parameters are shown to be 891 and 46 MeV for the central value and full width of the resonance, respectively. It is shown that the one-pion-exchange contribution dominates the low-momentum-transfer events at the higher energies. On the assumption that interaction is negligible, which is strongly indicated by the data of Galtieri et al., the -wave phase shift is shown to be small and positive and roughly linear with the center-of-mass momentum in the system. Influence of other unstable meson and baryon states on this reaction is discussed.
