Abstract The 0°-meson may be a scalar or a vector particle. The two possible interactions which account for its decay into two π-mesons are considered. The cross sections (a) for the anomalous decay of ϑ 0 into two π-mesons and a γ-ray, and (b) for the production reaction π - + p → Λ 0+θ 0, are calculated, in the hope of finding a criterion to distinguish between the two spin values.
