We develop a model that describes the gamma p -> K^+ pi Sigma reaction in the Lambda(1405) region. The model consists of gauge invariant photo-production mechanisms, and the chiral unitary model that gives the rescattering amplitudes where…
Pion photoproduction reactions are investigated in a dynamical coupled-channel approach based on the Juelich pi-N model, which presently includes the hadronic pi-N and eta-N stable channels as well as the pi-Delta, sigma-N and rho-N…
We present a formalism for the low-energy analysis of the $\gamma p\rightarrow K^{+}\pi\Sigma$ photoproduction reaction in the $\Lambda^{\ast}(1405)$ resonance region. In particular, the constraints arising from unitarity, gauge invariance…
We investigate the discovery potential of the $a_1(1260)$ photoproduction in the $\gamma p \to a_1(1260)^+ n$ and $\gamma p \to \pi^+\pi^+\pi^- n$ reactions via the $\pi$-exchange mechanism. For the $\gamma p \to \pi^+\pi^+\pi^- n$…

We study the $J/\psi \to \gamma \pi^+ \pi^-$, $\gamma \pi^0 \eta$ reactions from the perspective that they come from the $J/\psi \to \phi(\omega) \pi^+ \pi^-, \rho^0\pi^0 \eta$ reactions, where the $\rho^0$, $\omega$, and $\phi$ get…
We study the processes e+e- --> K+ K- pi+pi-gamma, K+ K- pi0pi0gamma, and K+ K- K+ K-gamma, where the photon is radiated from the initial state. About 84000, 8000, and 4200 fully reconstructed events, respectively, are selected from 454…
We study the reaction mechanism for the correlated $\pi^0\gamma$ emission in the photon induced reaction on the proton target. Since this reaction is studied in the GeV region, we assume that it proceeds through the formation of the vector…
In view of ongoing experimental activities to determine the pion polarizabilities, we have started to recalculate the available two-loop expressions in the framework of chiral perturbation theory, because they have never been checked…
A high statistics data sample of the decays of $K^+$ mesons to three charged particles was accumulated by the OKA experiment in 2012 and 2013. This allowed to select a clean sample of about 450 events with…
