The $\gamma n \to \pi^0 n$ differential cross section evaluated for 27 energy bins span the photon-energy range 290-813 MeV (W = 1.195-1.553 GeV) and the pion c.m. polar production angles, ranging from 18 deg to 162 deg, making use of model-dependent nuclear corrections to extract pi0 production data on the neutron from measurements on the deuteron target. Additionally, the total photoabsorption cross section was measured. The tagged photon beam produced by the 883-MeV electron beam of the Mainz Microtron MAMI was used for the 0-meson production. Our accumulation of 3.6 x 10^6 $\gamma n \to \pi^0 n$ events allowed a detailed study of the reaction dynamics. Our data are in reasonable agreement with previous A2 measurements and extend them to lower energies. The data are compared to predictions of previous SAID, MAID, and BnGa partial-wave analyses and to the latest SAID fit MA19 that included our data. Selected photon decay amplitudes $N^* \to \gamma n$ at the resonance poles are determined for the first time.

Measurement of the g p -> K^0 Sigma^+ reaction with the Crystal Ball/TAPS detectors at the Mainz Microtron

The g p -> K^0 Sigma^+ reaction has been measured from threshold to Eg=1.45 GeV (W_cm=1.9 GeV) using the Crystal Ball and TAPS multiphoton spectrometers together with the photon tagging facility at the Mainz Microtron MAMI. In the present experiment, this reaction was searched for in the 3pi^0 p final state, by assuming K^0_S -> pi^0 pi^0 and Sigma^+ -> pi^0 p. The experimental results include total and differential cross sections as well as the polarization of the recoil hyperon. The new data significantly improve empirical knowledge about the g p -> K^0 Sigma^+ reaction in the measured energy range. The results are compared to previous measurements and model predictions. It is demonstrated that adding the present g p -> K^0 Sigma^+ results to existing data allowed a better description of this reaction with various models.

Differential cross-sections for photoproduction of positive pions in hydrogen I. — low energies

The cross-sections σ(Eγ,ϑ ) for the reaction pγ→ n+ have been measured near threshold as a function of photon energy and at four angles. See Table I. These results combined with previously known data, have given a fairly complete and accurate description of σ(Eγ,θ) between the limits 30°≤θ≤180° and 170≤ Eγ 270 MeV. See Table II and Pig. 2. Writing σ(Eγ,θ) = W·a0 + a1 cos θ + a2 cos2 θ× withW= ηωl +(μ/Ei)ξ −1·l + (μ/E f )ω×−1 (see formula (5)) the experimental data indicate that (Table III) a0 is constant up to about Eγ ≃ 260 MeV; and that (Table V) the three ai coefficients analyzed in terms ofS andP waves give a very small spin flippingP-amplitudeK. The presumption that theS amplitudeE 1 ismainly due to the gauge invariance requirement is definitely not consistent with the data (see Table IV). A discussion based on the Kroll and Rudermann theorem leads to the conclusion that this inconsistency may be eliminated if allowance is made for the contribution of fairly large nucleon recoils. However, it turns out that only the changing sign part of these recoils is really large and apparently so up to terms of order higher than μM. The amount of the recoil at threshold is estimated and consequently a value for the pspv interaction constant is derived.
