NOTE: Text or symbols not renderable in plain ASCII are indicated by [...]. Abstract is included in .pdf document. The cross section for photoproduction of neutral pions from protons has been measured at energies near 750, 915 and 1150 Mev and over most of the forward-going [...] C.M. hemisphere. The experimental technique consisted of detecting both of the [...] decay photons with lead glass total absorption counters and, when convenient, the recoil proton with a single scintillation counter. The method is subject to rather large systematic errors but, within these, our results are consistent with other experiments wherever there are overlapping points. Our data has the striking feature that the cross section is very small at [...] in the region of the second and third pion nucleon resonances. Also, although the data is not inconsistent with a simple first, second and third resonance model, it appears likely that above the third resonance the pole process consisting of the exchange of a single vector meson is becoming important or even dominant. The evidence at this time mildly suggests that this behaviour is largely due to [...] mesons and under that hypothesis we are able to estimate some [...] meson coupling constants. For example, using a prescription of Gell-Mann and Zachariasen, we estimate the partial width for the decay [...] to be 240 Kev.

The reaction γ+p→π0+p has been studied in three adjacent 100-Mev energy intervals between 900 and 1200 Mev and at pion center-of-mass angles of 47°, 90°, and 125°. The reaction was observed as a coincidence between the recoil proton and one of the photons from the meson's decay. The kinematics were determined by the energy of the incident photon and the angle of the recoil proton. The differential cross sections at the forward and backward angles show pronounced maxima near 1050 Mev, while the 90° cross sections decrease slowly with energy. The estimated total cross sections suggest a narrow maximum near 1050 Mev. These features are consistent with the previously proposed existence of a resonant state in the pion-nucleon system of total angular momentum 52.
