In this comment we critically reexamine the interpretation of the data and show that the data prefers a solution where there is no bound state present. Given the low statistics of the measurement, however, it does not exclude the existence of a bound state.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-08-18T09:47:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14.20.Gk", "13.75.Cs", "14.40.Cs", "14.40.Aq" ], "keywords": [ "photoproduction", "bound state", "low statistics", "taps collaboration", "first measurement" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
