${{\mathit \Sigma}{(1560)}}$ Bumps

$I(J^P)$ = $1(?^{?})$ 
This entry lists peaks reported in mass spectra around 1560 MeV without implying that they are necessarily related. DIONISI 1978B observes a 6 standard-deviation enhancement at 1553 MeV in the charged ${{\mathit \Lambda}}$ /${{\mathit \Sigma}}{{\mathit \pi}}$ mass spectra from ${{\mathit K}^{-}}$ ${{\mathit p}}$ $\rightarrow$ ( ${{\mathit \Lambda}}$ /${{\mathit \Sigma}}$) ${{\mathit \pi}}{{\mathit K}}{{\overline{\mathit K}}}$ at 4.2 ${\mathrm {GeV/}}\mathit c$. In a CERN ISR experiment, LOCKMAN 1978 reports a narrow 6 standard-deviation enhancement at 1572 MeV in ${{\mathit \Lambda}}{{\mathit \pi}^{\pm}}$ from the reaction ${{\mathit p}}$ ${{\mathit p}}$ $\rightarrow$ ${{\mathit \Lambda}}{{\mathit \pi}^{+}}{{\mathit \pi}^{-}}{{\mathit X}}$ . These enhancements are unlikely to be associated with the ${{\mathit \Sigma}{(1580)}}$ (which has not been confirmed by several recent experiments -- see the next entry in the Listings). CARROLL 1976 observes a bump at 1550 MeV (as well as one at 1580 MeV) in the isospin-$1{}^{}{}^{}$ ${{\overline{\mathit K}}}{{\mathit N}}$ total cross section, but uncertainties in cross section measurements outside the mass range of the experiment preclude estimating its significance. See also MEADOWS 1980 for a review of this state.
