Production of a⁺₀-Mesons in the Production of a⁺₀-Mesons in the Reaction pp ® da⁺₀

We investigate the reaction pp ® da₀ ⁺ at COSY and SIS energies
together with accompanying background reactions and inclusive particle yields.
The a₀ ⁺ is considered as a usual quark model state with two decay channels
a₀ ⁺ ® K⁺[`(K<sup>0</sup>)] and a<sub>0</sub> <sup>+</sup> ® p <sup>+</sup> h.
Cross sections for a<sub>0</sub> <sup>+</sup> production as well as for the corresponding nonresonant channels
pp ® dK<sup>+</sup>[` (K⁰)] and pp ®dp ⁺ h are compared.
Especially in case of the final channel dp ⁺ h
high statistics measurements are necessary to extract the a₀ ⁺ signal from the nonresonant background.
