Differential cross sections for the process γ p → p η have been measuredd at c.m. angles of 28°, 35° and 42° at incident energies between 2 GeV and 2.8 GeV. Data from an earlier experiment below 2 GeV have been re-analysed and corrected. The whole set of data is compared with the form ( s − M 2 ) 2 d σ /d t , which fits data at higher energies. There is good agreement above 2 GeV, particularly at the largest angle, but strong departures below.
