New measurements of the polarization of the recoil protons from the reaction γ + p → π o + p are reported for the region of the first resonance. These measurements are an extension of earlier experiments, done on the 500 MeV-electron-synchroton. More data have been taken at photon energies of 240, 300, 360 and 420 MeV.

The results of a comprehensive series of measurements of the cross-sections for the photo-production of π0-mesons from hydrogen at pion c.m. angles from 47 to 145 degrees are presented. The minimum and maximum photon energies have been 238 and 922 MeV respectively.

The polarization of the recoil proton from the reaction 7+p--->~pi0+p has been measured using liquid helium as polarization analyser. The photon energy has been varied between 250 and 360 MeV, the pion angle (CM) between 58 and 100.

The cross section for single π0 photoproduction from hydrogen has been measured at nominal angles of 70°, 90°, 130°, and 180° for photon energies 220-400 MeV by detecting the recoil protons. The 180° measurements, taken with a new setup, avoid big corrections present in some of the previously published results. These new data allow a direct comparison with the experiment presented by the Bonn group and with the most recent theoretical predictions.

The asymmetry Σ(k,θ*)=(dσ⊥−dσ∥)(dσ⊥+σ∥) of the polarized cross sections for π0 photoproduction has been measured at θ*=90° for energies k of the incident photon in the range 230-380 MeV. The experiment has been performed with the polarized γ-ray beam of the Frascati 1-GeV electron synchrotron. The experimental results are compared with the present theoretical predictions in order to investigate the importance of ω exchange in the t channel and the contribution of the E1+(3) multipole at the 33 resonance. The theory with ω exchange is in the best agreement with the experiment.

The production of π∘ mesons in the reaction γ+p→π∘+p is investigated as a function of the incident γ-ray energy in the region from 200 Mev to 300 Mev. For the π∘ emitted at approximately 90° laboratory angle, the differential cross section can be represented by (dσπ∘dΩ)π2=C(K−145)1.9±0.4, where K= energy of incident γ-ray in Mev. The approximate threshold for the reaction is 145 Mev. The ratio of the cross section at 60° laboratory angle to that at 90° laboratory angle, for γ-rays between 250 Mev and 300 Mev, is 1.45±0.25.

Measurements of π0 photoproduction have been made at 235, 285, 335, and 435 MeV, using a beam of polarized x rays. Using a calculated value of polarization, an analysis is made which indicates a possible need for γ, ρ, π, or γ, ω, π coupling. The polarization calculations are checked by measurements made as a function of photon production angle at 335 MeV.

The scattering of photons by protons has been measured with a spark-chamber technique using 335-MeV bremsstrahlung. The experimental values obtained at 90° and 135° are compared with those calculated by Contogouris using dispersion relations. The agreement is reasonable except for a persistently low point for 310 MeV at 90°.

The π0 photoproduction cross section has been measured at 180° for photon energies from 220 to 380 MeV, in steps of 20 MeV, by detecting the recoil proton at 0°. The statistical accuracy of the measurements varies between 3 and 7%, depending on the energy. Absolute cross sections have been deduced from a comparison of the measurements with electron-proton scattering. The experimental data are compared with theoretical results calculated from fixed-momentum-transfer dispersion relations. Special attention is paid to the prediction of the multipoles at the first resonance, namely, E1+32, M1+32, and E0+π0 to obtain agreement with experiment.
