Meson Photoproduction with Polarized Targets L. Tiator, Mainz • p production • p0 at threshold • Roper and P11(1710) • h production • S11-D13 phase rotation in threshold region • Neutron bump at W = 1680 MeV • h’production • separation of S and P wave multipoles close at threshold • h’ on the deuteron
Introduction if the amplitudes (multipoles) are real or if the Watson theorem can be applied we only needs to measure a real number for each partial wave if we can neglect all D- and higher partial waves we only have to deal with 4 real quantities: E0+, E1+, M1+, M1-or E0, P1, P2, P3 and we are done with ds/dW and S without worrying about target or recoil polarization 2 very famous examples, both from MAMI: p0 p partial waves at threshold p0 p, p+ n with full isospin separation in the D region
But for all other cases, where the imaginary parts are unknown we need nucleon polarizations, either polarized targets or recoil polarization measurements
Pion photoproduction • at threshold the photon asymmetry S at from threshold to 200 MeV is very important from all calculations and partial wave analyses up to now, only ChPT is able to describe it (by fitting LECs) most other calculations get even an opposite sign near threshold • P11(1440) and P11(1710) the P11 resonances are partially hidden states they are very difficult to isolate and are most debated among all resonances
the photon asymmetry S at from threshold to 200 MeV is very important for all calculations and partial wave analyses up to now, only ChPT is able to describe it (by fitting LECs) also dispersion relations can not describe the asymmetry
P11 resonances the M1- multipole is only poorly known because most observables are very insensitive on this multipole but it is very important because of our interest in the Roper resonance with MAMI B we had already started to measure the G observable, which gives the most direct access to M1- (pending proposal) now in the same channel we can further look into the second P11, which could be a verry narrow state and is currently debated
Eta photoproduction • S11(1535) plays an outstanding role in g,h and e,e‘h and and dominates the total cross section completely • at higher energies: S11(1650), P11(1710), P13(1720) play some role • around Eg=1 GeV or W=1670 MeV a surprising structure appears in g,h on the neutron (quasi-free) which is still not fully explained speculations about narrow P11(1680) (pentaquark) or strong D15(1675) (EtaMaid) or P11(1710) in coupled-channels approach (Gießen model) • small resonance contributions can be observed with polarization observables as interferences with the large S wave, • e.g. D13(1520) is clearly visible in S(q), • even with a branching of only GhN/ Gtotal = 0.0006

Beam-Recoil Double Polarization Experiment in 2007 at MAMI-A1p( e, e´p )hin search for the phase rotation in eta electroproduction
Recoil Polarization in plane: f = 0orp single polarization: double polarization:
confirms the phase rotation
The question remains: Is the phase rotationof hadronic or electromagnetic origin? This can be answered in quasi-free h production on the deuteron
the neutron bump in eta photoproduction at W=1670-1680 MeV
Photoproduction of h mesons on the deuteron in the presence of a narrow P11(1670) resonance ( A. Fix, L.T., M.V. Polyakov, EPJ A in print ) model with a strong D15 : model with a narrow P11 : resonance parameters for the pentaquark in our calculations:
GRAAL measurements of the beam asymmetry on the proton and on the neutron
Photon Beam Asymmetry on the Proton data: Bartalini et al., GRAAL 2007 EtaMaid CQM, Saghai, Li Bonn pw analysis, Sarantsev et al.
comparison of GRAAL proton data with pentaquark solutions data: Bartalini et al. GRAAL 2007 EtaMaid Bonn pw analysis Sarantsev et al. ReggeMaid + P11(1670) ReggeMaid - P11(1670) the proton data does not show any pentaquark signature !!
can we do something to solve this puzzle? also here the target polarization can very well distiguish between different models, see SFB-MAMI proposal 2007
