Structure with a width less than 30 MeV/c2 requires a physics process or fluctuation. The total cross section is ~1 mb, which is consistent with the LAMP2 measurements.

  35. Next step LARGE fluctuations are required if the peak is not real. High statistics data was already collected in 2006-2007 with the same experimental setup. Blind analysis is under way to check the Θ+ peak The result will tell us if the peak structure is due to statistical fluctuations or not unambiguously.

  40. Summary • LEPS is a Backward Compton gamma beam facility at SPring-8. GeV g beam with high polarization is available. • LEPS detector has a good forward angle acceptance which is complimentary to the CLAS acceptance. • A bump structure is observed in f photo-production near threshold. • Strong isospin dependence was observed in L(1520) photo-production. • Evidence for new baryon resonance in h photo-production, which may contain ss component. • Q+ peak was observed in the nK+ invariant mass at 1.53 GeV/c2. New data set with 3 times more statistics was taken. Blind analysis is under way. • 7. LEPS2 project is ongoing: 10 times stronger beam & 4p coverage.
