Abstract

The reactions γpπ0p\gamma p\to\pi^0 p and γpπ+n\gamma p\to\pi^+ n are analyzed in a semi-phenomenological approach up to E2.3E\sim2.3 GeV. Fits to differential cross section and single and double polarization observables are performed. A good overall reproduction of the available photoproduction data is achieved. The J\"ulich2012 dynamical coupled-channel model -which describes elastic πN\pi N scattering and the world data base of the reactions πNηN\pi N\to\eta N, KΛK\Lambda, and KΣK\Sigma at the same time - is employed as the hadronic interaction in the final state. The framework guarantees analyticity and, thus, allows for a reliable extraction of resonance parameters in terms of poles and residues. In particular, the photocouplings at the pole can be extracted and are presented.
