The three reactions pp ! # ## in proton-antiproton annihilation in #ight at 900 MeV=c are used to search for isoscalar 0 and 2 mesons in the mass range 1000 , 2000 MeV, in particular the f0#1710#. The description of both # ## data sets requires an isoscalar tensor resonance decaying into # and ## with a mass of #1867 46# MeV and a width of #385 58# MeV
