Abstract
Possibilities of observing a signal of an bound state are investigated by considering photoproductions of the and mesons on a deuteron target with forward proton emission. For this purpose, we take the interaction from the linear model with a coupling to , in which an bound state can be dynamically generated, and we fix the and scattering amplitudes so as to reproduce the experimental cross sections with forward proton emission. By using these and amplitudes, we calculate cross sections of the and reactions with forward proton emission in single and double-scattering processes. As a result, we find that the signal of the bound state can be seen below the threshold in the invariant mass spectrum of the reaction and is comparable with the contribution from the quasifree production above the threshold. We also discuss the behavior of the signal of the bound state in several experimental conditions and model parameters.
