Study of Pi-Pi --> Kaon-Kaon and Pi-Pi --> Kaon - Kaon Scattering at 10 Gev/c.

A study of the virtual reactions (pi)('+)(pi)(' -) (--->) K('+)K('-) and (pi)('+)(pi)('0) (--->). K('+)K('-)(pi)('+) has been performed using the Large Aperture Solenoid. Spectrometer (LASS) at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. A. moment analysis of the K('+)K('-) and K('+)K(' -)(pi)('+) systems is presented,. yielding information on the leading natural spin -parity resonance. states. The well-established states f(1270), f'(1515), and g(1700). are observed, and evidence is presented for a new state with J('p) =. 7('-) in the K('+)K('-)(pi)('+) system at a mass of 2720 MeV. *USDOE Report IS-T-1010. This work was performed under Contract No. W-7405-Eng-82 with the U.S. Department of Energy.
