We find that our data are consistent with the following intermediate states: rho(770)pi^+, f_2(1270)pi^+, f_0(1370)pi^+, f_0(1500)pi^+, f_0(980) pi^+, and sigma pi^+. We confirm large S wave contributions at low pi pi mass. We set upper limits on contributions of other possible intermediate states. We consider three models of the pi pi S wave and find that all of them adequately describe our data.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-07-05T13:12:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "13.25.Ft", "13.30.Eg", "11.80.Et" ], "keywords": [ "dalitz plot analysis", "intermediate states", "low pi pi mass", "dalitz plot technique", "set upper limits" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review D", "year": 2007, "month": "Jul", "volume": 76, "number": 1, "pages": "012001" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 31, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 749602, "adsabs": "2007PhRvD..76a2001B" } } }
