Beam asymmetry and differential cross section for the reaction gamma+p->eta+p were measured from production threshold to 1500 MeV photon laboratory energy. The two dominant neutral decay modes of the eta meson, eta->2g and eta->3pi0, were analyzed. The full set of measurements is in good agreement with previously published results. Our data were compared with three models. They all fit satisfactorily the results but their respective resonance contributions are quite different. The possible photoexcitation of a narrow state N(1670) was investigated and no evidence was found.

Quasi-free photoproduction of eta-mesons of the neutron

Quasi-free photoproduction of eta-mesons off nucleons bound in the deuteron has been measured with the CBELSA/TAPS detector for incident photon energies up to 2.5 GeV at the Bonn ELSA accelerator. The eta-mesons have been detected in coincidence with recoil protons and recoil neutrons, which allows a detailed comparison of the quasi-free n(gamma,eta)n and p(gamma,eta)p reactions. The excitation function for eta-production off the neutron shows a pronounced bump-like structure at W=1.68 GeV (E_g ~ 1 GeV), which is absent for the proton.

RECOIL PROTON POLARIZATION IN ETA PHOTOPRODUCTION

Heusch, C.A. ; Prescott, C.Y. ; Rochester, L.S. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 25 (1970) 1381, 1970.
Inspire Record 61494 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21581

We measured the polarization of the recoil proton in the process γp→pη0, at 90° in the center-of-mass system, at incoming photon energies from 0.8 to 1.1 GeV. Detection of all three particles in the final state pγγ permitted observation of this process with little background. Subsequent rescattering off carbon nuclei yielded sizable polarization values for the protons, indicating considerable S−P—wave interference in the production process.

Differential Cross Sections in Eta Photoproduction from 0.8 to 1.45 GeV

The cross section for the process γp→pη was studied from 0.8- to 1.45-GeV incident photon energy at center-of-mass angles from 50 to 90°. The data cover a range of energies well beyond previous measurements. The results will aid in the study of I=12 nucleon isobars.

PHOTOPRODUCTION OF eta0 MESONS AT 4-Gev

Inspire Record 53018 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.21703

We have measured η0 photoproduction at 4 GeV. We find our results to be consistent with a theoretical preduction relating this cross section to ω0 production by π mesons using a vector-dominance model; there is no evidence for a dip or change of slope at −t=0.6 as seen in π0 photoproduction.

Differential cross-sections for the photoproduction of eta mesons from protons near 2 gev

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.
