Abstract: (APS)
By extending the dynamical coupled-channels analysis performed in our previous work [Phys. Rev. C 88, 035209 (2013)]PRVCAN0556-281310.1103/PhysRevC.88.035209 to include the available data of photoproduction of π mesons off neutrons, the transition amplitudes for the photoexcitation of the neutron-to-nucleon resonances, γn→N*, at the resonance pole positions are determined. The combined fits to the data for both the proton- and neutron-target reactions also revise our results for the resonance pole positions and the γp→N* transition amplitudes. Our results allow an isospin decomposition of the γN→N* transition amplitudes for the isospin I=12N* resonances, which is necessary for testing hadron structure models and gives crucial inputs for constructing models of neutrino-induced reactions in the nucleon resonance region.
