Abstract: (Elsevier)
Dibaryons, forbidden by mass to decay into NN π channel and by quantum numbers into NN channel, may still have escaped detection. In fact, recently an observation of a narrow dibaryon (D) with the mass close to 1920 MeV was reported in the process pp → γγ + X . This dibaryon should also appear in the proton-proton bremsstrahlung data from measurements at 200 and 310 MeV, which have been carried out at the CELSIUS storage ring in Uppsala. From these data upper limits of 10 and 3 nb are obtained for the dibaryon production cross section (at 95% confidence level) for the two energies, respectively.
