Abstract

Resonance production in the γγ reactions e⁺e^-→e⁺e⁺e^-π⁰π⁰ and e⁺e^-π⁰η has been studied with the JADE detector at PETRA. The decay widths into γγ of the f₂(1270), a₀(980) and a₂(1320) were measured to be {Mathematical expression} Kev, Γ_λλ(a₀(980))=0.28±0.04±0.10 KeV/BR(a₀(980)→π⁰η) and Γ_λλ(a₂(1320))=1.01±0.14±0.22KeV. For the f₀(975) and f₄(2050) upper limits of the widths were obtained, Γ_λλ(f₀(975))<0.6 KeV, and Γ_λλ(f₄(2050))<1.1 KeV, both at the 95% C.L. Assuming that the spin 0 background under the f₂(1270) is small, the f₂(1270) was found to be produced exclusively in a helicity 2 state. The helicity 0 contribution is <15% at the 95% C.L. The cross section for λλ→π⁰π⁰ in the mass range 2.0-3.5 GeV/c² was measured for the first time. Since the cross section for λλ→π⁺π^- is a factor ∼2 larger, ππ production in this range can be interpreted as taking place via isospin 0 production.
