Abstract: (Springer)
The ηN final state is isospin-selective and thus provides access to the spectrum of excited nucleons without being affected by excited Δ states. To this end, the world database on eta photoproduction off the proton up to a center-of-mass energy of E ∼ 2.3 GeV is analyzed, including data on differential cross sections, and single- and double-polarization observables. The resonance spectrum and its properties are determined in a combined analysis of eta and pion photoproduction off the proton together with the reactions πN → πN, ηN, KΛ and KΣ. For the analysis, the so-called Jülich coupled-channel framework is used, incorporating unitarity, analyticity, and effective three-body channels. Parameters tied to photoproduction and hadronic interactions are varied simultaneously. The influence of recent MAMI T and F asymmetry data on the eta photoproduction amplitude is discussed in detail.Note:
