Recent experimental results for the reaction \gamma + p \to K^+ + \Sigma + \pi\ from CLAS at Jefferson Lab are discussed. It was found that the mass distributions or "line shapes" of the three charge combinations \Sigma^+ \pi^-, \Sigma^0…
We evaluate theoretically the radiative decay widths into $\gamma\Lambda$ and $\gamma\Sigma^0$ of the two poles of the $\Lambda(1405)$ found in chiral unitary theories and we find quite different results for each of the two poles. We show…
We present a measurement of asymmetries in the production of $\Lambda_c^+$ and $\Lambda_c^-$ baryons in 500 GeV/c $\pi^-$--nucleon interactions from the E791 experiment at Fermilab. The asymmetries were measured as functions of Feynman x…
The search for missing nucleon resonances using coupled channel analysis has mostly been concentrated on $N\pi$ and $KY$ channels, while the contributions of $K^*Y$ and $KY^*$ channels have not been investigated thoroughly mostly due to the…
New kaon photoproduction data on a proton, gamma + p --> K+ + Lambda, are analyzed using a multipole approach. The background terms are given in terms of gauge invariant, crossing symmetric, Born diagrams with hadronic form factors, while…
We formulated the Lambda(1405) (abbreviated as Lambda^*) --> (Sigma pi)^0 invariant-mass spectra produced in p+p --> p + Lambda^* + K^+ reactions, in which both the incident channel for a quasi-bound K^-p state and its decay process to…
Photoproduction of $\Lambda$(1520) with liquid hydrogen and deuterium targets was examined at photon energies below 2.4 GeV in the SPring-8 LEPS experiment. For the first time, the differential cross sections were measured at low energies…
In these proceedings we present preliminary $\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ electroproduction cross sections off protons in the kinematical area of 1.4 GeV $< W <$ 1.8 GeV and 0.4 GeV$^{2}$ $< Q^{2} < 1.1$ GeV$^{2}$. Our results extend the kinematical…

The lineshape of the Lambda(1405) was studied in the pp -> pK+ Y0 reaction at a beam momentum of 3.65 GeV/c at COSY-Juelich. The ANKE spectrometer was used to identify two protons, one positively charged kaon, and one negatively charged…
The K^- induced production of Lambda(1405) is investigated in K^- d to pi Sigma n reactions based on coupled-channels chiral dynamics, in order to discuss the resonance position of the Lambda(1405) in the KbarN channel. We find that the…
The photoproduction of $\omega$ mesons on LH_2, C and Nb has been studied for incident photon energies from 900 to 1300 MeV using the CB/TAPS detector at ELSA. The $\omega$ line shape does not show any significant difference between the…
We study the non-Breit-Wigner line-shape of the $\psi(3770)$ resonance, predominantly a $1\ ^{3}D_{1}$ $\bar{c}c$ state, using an unitarized effective Lagrangian approach, including the one-loop effects of the nearby thresholds $D^+D^-$ and…
Background: In $\pi^+n$ and $\pi^-p$ electroproduction, conventional models cannot satisfactory explain the data above the resonance region, in particular the transverse cross section. Although no high-energy L-T-separated cross-section…

We investigate the reaction mechanism of $K^0 \Lambda$ photoproduction off the neutron target, i.e., $\gamma n \to K^0 \Lambda$, in the range of $W\approx 1.6-2.2$ GeV. We employ an effective Lagrangian method at the tree-level Born…

We propose to use the high current photon beam available at A2 to produce the isosinglet $\Lambda(1405)1/2^-$ hyperon at threshold via $\gamma p\rightarrow K^+\Lambda(1405)$. Its nature is still controversial and actively debated. Since the…
