Kaonic production of

The K--induced production of $ \Lambda$(1405) is investigated in K - d $ \rightarrow$ $ \pi$ $ \Sigma$ n reactions based on coupled-channels chiral dynamics, in order to discuss the resonance position of the $ \Lambda$(1405) in the $ \bar{{K}}$ N channel. We find that the K - d $ \rightarrow$ $ \Lambda$(1405)n process favors the production of $ \Lambda$(1405) initiated by the $ \bar{{K}}$ N channel. The present approach indicates that the $ \Lambda$(1405) -resonance position is 1420MeV rather than 1405MeV in the $ \pi$ $ \Sigma$ invariant-mass spectra of K - d $ \rightarrow$ $ \pi$ $ \Sigma$ n reactions. This is consistent with an observed spectrum of the K - d $ \rightarrow$ $ \pi^{{+}}_{}$ $ \Sigma^{{-}}_{}$ n with 686-844MeV/c incident K- by bubble chamber experiments done in the 70s. Our model also reproduces the measured $ \Lambda$(1405) production cross-section
