  • Description: The reaction pp --> d pi(+) eta has been measured at a beam energry of T-p = 2.65 GeV (p(p) = 3.46 GeV/c) using the ANKE spectrometer at COSY-Julich. The missing-mass distribution of the detected d pi(+) pairs exhibits a peak around the eta mass on top of a strong background of multipion pp --> d pi(+) (n pi) events. The differential cross section d(4) sigma/d Omega(d)d Omega(pi+)dp(d)dp(pi+) for the reaction pp --> d pi(+)eta has been determined model independently for two regions of phase space. Employing a dynamical model for the a(0)(+) production allows one then to deduce a total cross section of sigma(pp; --> da(0)(+) --> d pi(+) eta) = 1.1 +/- 0.3(stat) +/- 0.7(syst) mu b for the production of pi(+)eta via the scalar a(0)(+)(980) resonance and sigma(pp --> d pi(+)eta) = 3.5 +/- 0.3(stat) +/- 1.0(syst) mu b for the nonresonant production. Using the same model as for the interpretation of recent results from ANKE for the reaction pp --> dK(+)(K) over bar (0), the ratio of the total cross sections is sigma(pp --> d(K+(K) over bar (0))(L=0))/sigma(pp --> da(0)(+) --> d pi(+)eta) = 0.029 +/- 0.008(stat) +/- 0.009(syst), which is in agreement with branching ratios in the literature.
