Separable potential model for meson-baryon interaction beyond the S-wave

A model for low-energy meson-baryon interaction in the strange sector is presented. The interaction is described in terms of separable potentials with multiple partial waves considered. A general solution of Lippmann-Schwinger equation for the scattering of spin zero and spin one-half particles is derived. Next, the general framework is applied to the $\bar{K}N$ sector in a simple model with only the S- and P-waves taken into account. The separable potential is designed to match the chiral perturbation theory at lowest nontrivial order. It is shown that although a simple model with three free parameters works well for the S-wave, it fails to reproduce the P-wave features of kaon-nucleon physics. Most importantly, the P-wave interaction is too weak to express a resonant behavior that could be identified as $Σ(1385)$ resonance.
