Abstract

We present a strategy to extract the position of the two Λ(1405)\Lambda(1405) poles from experimental photoproduction data measured recently at different energies in the γpK+π0Σ0\gamma p \to K^+ \pi^0 \Sigma^0 reaction at Jefferson Lab. By means of a chiral dynamics motivated potential but with free parameters, we solve the Bethe Salpeter equation in the coupled channels KˉN\bar K N and πΣ\pi \Sigma in isospin I=0 and parameterize the amplitude for the photonuclear reaction in terms of a linear combination of the πΣπΣ\pi \Sigma \to \pi \Sigma and KˉNπΣ\bar K N \to \pi \Sigma scattering amplitudes in I=0, with a different linear combination for each energy. Good fits to the data are obtained with some sets of parameters, by means of which one can also predict the cross section for the Kpπ0Σ0K^- p \to \pi^0 \Sigma^0 reaction. These later results help us decide among the possible solutions. The result is that the different solutions lead to two poles similar to those found in the chiral unitary approach. With the best result we find the two Λ(1405)\Lambda(1405) poles at 138568i\mev1385-68i\mevand 141922i\mev1419-22i\mev.
