We study the production of Sigma^+-pi^+-pK^+ particle quartets in p+p reactions at 3.5 GeV kinetic beam energy. The data were taken with the HADES experiment at GSI. This report evaluates the contribution of resonances like Lambda(1405$, Sigma(1385)^0, Lambda(1520), Delta(1232), N^* and K^*0 to the Sigma^+- pi^-+ p K+ final state. The resulting simulation model is compared to the experimental data in several angular distributions and it shows itself as suitable to evaluate the acceptance corrections properly.

Data on inclusive pion and eta production measured with the dielectron spectrometer HADES in the reaction p+93Nb at a kinetic beam energy of 3.5 GeV are presented. Our results, obtained with the photon conversion method, supplement the rather sparse information on neutral meson production in proton-nucleus reactions existing for this bombarding energy regime. The reconstructed e+e-e+e- transverse-momentum and rapidity distributions are confronted with transport model calculations, which account fairly well for both pi0 and eta production.
We present the inclusive invariant-mass, transverse momentum and rapidity distributions of dielectrons (e$^{+}$e$^{-}$ pairs) in p+p interactions at 3.5 GeV beam kinetic energy. In the vector-meson mass region, a distinct peak corresponding to direct $omega$ decays is reconstructed with 2% mass resolution. The data is compared to predictions from three model calculations. Due to the large acceptance of the HADES apparatus for $e^{+}e^{-}$ invariant masses above 0.2 GeV/$c^{2}$ and for transverse pair momenta p$_{t}$ $ <$ 1 GeV/$c$, acceptance corrections are to a large extent model independent. This allows us to extract from dielectron data for the first time at this energy the inclusive production cross sections for light vector mesons. Inclusive production cross sections for $pi^o$ and $eta$ mesons are also reported. The obtained results will serve as an important reference for the study of vector meson production in proton-nucleus and heavy-ion collisions. Furthermore, using this data, an improved value for the upper bound of the branching ratio for direct $eta$ decays into the electron-positron channel is obtained.
The aim of the present analysis is to determine the relative production cross sections of the $Lambda$(1405) and $Sigma(1385)^{0}$ resonances in p+p collisions at E$_{kin}$=3.5 GeV measured with HADES. Upper and lower limits have been determined for the ratio $sigma_{(Sigma(1385)^{0}+p+K^{+})}/sigma_{(Lambda(1405)+p+K^{+})}=0.76_{-0.26}^{+0.54}$. The knowledge of this ratio is an essential input for the analysis of the decay $Lambda(1405)rightarrowSigma^{pm}pi^{mp}$, where an unambiguous separation of the $Lambda$(1405) and $Sigma(1385)^{0}$ signals is not possible.
An exclusive analysis of the 4-body final states $mathrm{Lambda + p + pi^{+} + K^{0}}$ and $mathrm{Sigma^{0} + p + pi^{+} + K^{0}}$ measured with HADES for p+p collisions at a beam kinetic energy of 3.5 GeV is presented. The analysis uses various phase space variables, such as missing mass and invariant mass distributions, in the four particle event selection (p, $pi^+$, $pi^+$, $pi^-$) to find cross sections of the different production channels, contributions of the intermediate resonances $mathrm{Delta^{++}}$ and $mathrm{Sigma(1385)^{+}}$ and corresponding angular distributions. A dominant resonant production is seen, where the reaction $mathrm{Lambda + Delta^{++} + K^{0}}$ has an about ten times higher cross section ($mathrm{29.45pm0.08^{+1.67}_{-1.46}pm2.06,mu b}$) than the analogous non-resonant reaction ($mathrm{2.57pm0.02^{+0.21}_{-1.98}pm0.18,mu b}$). A similar result is obtained in the corresponding $Sigma^{0}$ channels with $mathrm{9.26pm0.05^{+1.41}_{-0.31}pm0.65, mu b}$ in the resonant and $mathrm{1.35pm0.02^{+0.10}_{-1.35}pm0.09,mu b}$ in the non-resonant reactions.
Results on the production of the double-strange cascade hyperon $mathrm{Xi^-}$ are reported for collisions of p,(3.5~GeV),+,Nb, studied with the High Acceptance Di-Electron Spectrometer (HADES) at SIS18 at GSI Helmholtzzentrum for Heavy-Ion Research, Darmstadt. For the first time, subthreshold $mathrm{Xi^-}$ production is observed in proton-nucleus interactions. Assuming a $mathrm{Xi^-}$ phase-space distribution similar to that of $mathrm{Lambda}$ hyperons, the production probability amounts to $P_{mathrm{Xi^-}}=(2.0,pm0.4,mathrm{(stat)},pm 0.3,mathrm{(norm)},pm 0.6,mathrm{(syst)})times10^{-4}$ resulting in a $mathrm{Xi^-/(Lambda+Sigma^0)}$ ratio of $P_{mathrm{Xi^-}}/ P_{mathrm{Lambda+Sigma^0}}=(1.2pm 0.3,mathrm{(stat)}pm0.4,mathrm{(syst)})times10^{-2}$. Available model predictions are significantly lower than the estimated $mathrm{Xi^-}$ yield.
