Measurement ofπ0photoproduction on the proton at MAMI C

Abstract: Differential cross sections for the γp → π 0 p reaction have been measured with the A2 taggedphoton facilities at the Mainz Microtron, MAMI C, up to the center-of-mass energy W = 1.9 GeV. The new results, obtained with a fine energy and angular binning, increase the existing quantity of π 0 photoproduction data by ∼ 47%. Owing to the unprecedented statistical accuracy and the full angular coverage, the results are sensitive to high partial-wave amplitudes. This is demonstrated by the decomposition of the diffe… Show more

“…Bonn-Gatchina (BnGa) uses a K-matrix formalism with Breit-Wigner resonances and includes πN → πN , γN → ππN , as well as channels ηN , KΛ, and KΣ. The GWU/SAID model is also based on a K-matrix approach that focuses on analyses of πN → πN [10] and γN → πN [11], but more recent efforts have allowed the inclusion of πN → ηN as well.…”

“…The Glasgow-Mainz tagger [28] was used in the major part of the experiments. In order to tag the highenergy part of the bremsstrahlung spectrum, a dedicated end-point tagging spectrometer (EPT) [29] was used, especially designed for η 0 measurements. In this Letter, the analysis of three independent data sets from different periods of data taking is presented.…”

“…The majority of experimental data on the γp → π 0 p reaction were obtained with energy-tagged photon beams and large solid angle electromagnetic calorimeters with a high efficiency for a detection of the 2 photons from the π 0 → γγ decay. We used data from the A2 Collaboration at the Mainz Microtron MAMI [12,13,[22][23][24][25][26][27][28], the CBELSA/TAPS Collaboration at ELectron Stretcher and Accelerator ELSA [29][30][31] and the GRAAL Detector at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility [32]. A summary is given in Table I.…”

“…[31] H 157 1462 − 1620 8 CBELSA/TAPS(2014) [29] In general, there is a hierarchy of precision depending on the polarization degrees of freedom used in the experiment. The highest precision was achieved in measurements of the unpolarized differential cross section at MAMI [22]. The statistical uncertainties are so small, that systematic uncertainties due to angular dependent detection efficiencies had to be taken into account.…”
