Abstract

We present a least squares fit to the experimental data on decays of negative parity baryon resonances into a pseudoscalar meson and either a JP = 1/2+ stable baryon or a JP = 3/2+ decuplet member. We find that the s-waves and d-waves are separately in good agreement with the predictions of SU (6)w ⊗ O(2)Lz. Predictions are given regarding several as yet unobserved decay processes, and for those which concern hitherto undetected resonances, their possible detection is discussed.
