Sigma(1385) Results and Status of the Theta+ in STAR
Sevil Salur, for STAR Collaboration
Abstract
The Sigma(1385) analysis and the current status of pentaquark search with the STAR detector are reported. The corrected pT spectra and the yields of the Sigma (1385) and their antiparticles in the most central Au+Au as well as elementary p+p collisions are presented. A comparison of the <pT> of observed particles suggests a similar behavior for particles with mass greater than 1.2 GeV in p+p and Au+Au collision environments. Acceptance and efficiency studies with simulations show that the (anti)pentaquarks should be found at the 3% level.
