Popis: We have carried out a sensitive (≳5 events/nb) search for narrow pp states at the BNL Multiparticle Spectrometer. We found no evidence of narrow pp states at 2020 and 2200 MeV in the reaction r−p→pr−pp at 16 GeV/c. We quote 2 upper limits of ≲3 nb for these states in our data. Based on the cross sections of the CERN W experiment at 12 GeV/c and assuming baryon‐exchange processes for the production, we should have seen ≳5 s signals at 2020 and 2200 MeV.
