In this paper, we present our study on the $\eta$ photoproduction based on the chiral quark model. We find that quark model provides a very good description of the $\eta$ production with much less parameters, and the threshold region is not…
We investigate the photoproduction of the $\Theta^+(1540)$ on a nucleon ($\gamma n \to K^- \Theta^+$, $\gamma p \to \bar{K}^0 \Theta^+$) and the pion-induced $\Theta^+$ production reaction on the proton ($\pi^- p \to K^- \Theta^+$). The…
