Abstract
We have examined the existence of the resonance, which is recently listed by the Particle Data Group as a one-star nucleon resonance, by using a covariant isobar model for kaon photoproduction and assuming that the resonance has , in accordance with our previous finding. After the inclusion of this resonance, the changes in the total show two clear minima at and 1696 MeV, which correspond to two different resonance states. The former corresponds to the narrow nucleon resonance found in our previous investigation, whereas the latter corresponds to a new resonance found as we increase the resonance width. From the latter we derive the mass and width relation of the resonance. We observe that the properties of both the and resonances are strongly correlated. Although the best fit of the present work yields and , the apparently small coupling constant to the channel found in previous investigations suggests that , which, according to the mass and width relation, corresponds to .
