abstract
The cross­section of the process ¯
p + p ! X 0 + j is estimated, where the
exchange particle is a virtual N + (1535) and the X 0 can be the exotic meson.

It is suggested in reference [1] to study a process with baryon exchange in order to look
for the exotic mesons with unnatural quantum numbers J PC = 1 \Gamma+ .
The reaction
¯
p + p ! X 0 + j; X 0 ! ú \Sigma ae \Upsilon ; ae \Upsilon ! ú \Upsilon + ú 0 (1)
can be described in Regge pole model [2] by diagram in Fig. 1.

Since the branching ratio for N + (1535) ! p + j is in the 30--55% range, the contribution
of N + (1535) exchange is expected to be substantial.
Because the ¯
p + N + (1535) initial state is not an eigenstate of C, J PC ­exotic states are
now allowed. So, if ¯
p (J P = 1
2
\Gamma
) and N + (1535) (J P = 1
2
\Gamma
) are in a relative P­wave and
the total intrinsic spin is zero, i.e. S = 0, then the state X 0 can be both J PC = 1 \Gamma\Gamma and
J PC = 1 \Gamma+ . The latter of these cannot be a ¯
qq state, and therefore is an exotic state.
The aim of this note is an estimation of absolute cross­section of reaction (1) in terms of
its u\Gamma and also p lab \Gamma dependence.
We use the formulae of Regge model from reference [3], where a detailed study of the
backward scattering is presented. The backward meson scattering
ú \Gamma + p ! p + ú \Gamma (2)
is descibed by the diagram in Fig.2. The authors of [3] found the corresponding parameters
in order to fit data.

We repeated Barger and Cline's [3] calculation of reaction (3) and received the same

results at 10 GeV with their parameters:
fi \Delta

= 0:10 GeV \Gamma1 ;
s 0 = 2:85 GeV 2 ;
ff \Delta (u) = 0:15 + 0:9 u:

We assume that a good estimation of cross­section for reaction (1) will be the cross­section
of reaction (8), which is shown in Fig.4.

For this reaction we use the next parameters:
fi N

= (0:10 GeV \Gamma1 ) BR(N(1535) ! p + j);
s 0 = 2:85 GeV 2 ;
ff N (u) = \Gamma1:62 + 0:9 u;
BR(N(1535) ! p + j) = 0:45 :

Parameters of the Regge trajectory of N(1535) baryon exchange were taken from reference
[4] and the branching of N(1535) from reference [5].
The results are presented in Fig.5 and Fig.6.
The integral cross­section is well approximated by
