COSY-ANKE data on the cross section of the reactions $pp\to \{pp\}_s\pi^0$ and $pp\to \{pp\}_s\gamma$, where $\{pp\}_s$ is the proton pair in the $^1S_0$ state at small excitation energy $E_{pp}<3$ MeV, are analyzed at beam energies $0.5 -…
The exclusive reaction $\gamma p \to p K^+ K^-$ was studied in the photon energy range $3.0 - 3.8 \mbox{ GeV}$ and momentum transfer range $0.6<-t<1.3 \mbox{ GeV}^2$. Data were collected with the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson…
We present the results of an energy-dependent and set of single-energy partial-wave analyses of single-pion photoproduction data. These analyses extend from threshold to 2 GeV in the laboratory photon energy, and update our previous…
The production of the Sigma+ hyperon through the pp->K+nSigma+ reaction has been investigated at four energies close to threshold, 1.826, 1.920, 1.958, and 2.020 GeV. At low energies, correlated K+pi+ pairs can only originate from Sigma+…
Photoproduction cross sections are reported for the reaction $\gamma p\to p\eta$ using energy-tagged photons and the CLAS spectrometer at Jefferson Laboratory. The $\eta$ mesons are detected in their dominant charged decay mode, $\eta\to…

Elastic $\rho^0$ photoproduction has been measured using the ZEUS detector at HERA. Untagged photoproduction events from $ep$ interactions were used to measure the reaction $\gamma p \rightarrow \rho^0 p$ ($\rho^0 \rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^-$)…
We report on measurements of the differential cross section $d\sigma/d\Omega$ in the energy region of $\sqrt{s}$ = 2.5-2.9 GeV of the reaction $pp \to \{pp\}_s \pi^0$ where $\{pp\}_s$ is a $^1\!S_0$ proton pair. The experiment has been…
Production of lepton pairs in gamma p -> e-e+ p reaction is studied at photon energies up to 1 GeV. We show that even if lepton charge is not measured there are extensive kinematical regimes where the nuclear process dominates over the…
