Abstract
A high-resolution (σ<sub>instr.</sub>=1.5 MeV) search for narrow states (Γ<10 MeV) with masses of M<sub>x</sub>≈1500–1850 MeV in ep→e′K<sup>+</sup>X,e′K<sup>-</sup>X, and e′π<sup>+</sup>X electroproduction at small angles and low Q<sup>2</sup> was performed. These states would be candidate partner states of the reported Θ<sup>+</sup>(1540) pentaquark. No statistically significant signal was observed in any of the channels at 90% C.L. Upper limits on forward production were determined to be between 0.8% and 4.9% of the Λ(1520) production cross section, depending on the channel and the assumed mass and width of the state.
