Partial wave amplitudes of meson photoproduction reactions are an important source of information in baryon spectroscopy. We investigate a new approach in single-energy partial wave analyses of these reactions. Instead of using a constraint…
The $\pi^0 \gamma$ invariant mass distribution spectra in the $ (\gamma, \pi^0\gamma) $ reaction were measured by TAPS/ELSA collaboration to look for the hadron parameters of the $\omega$ meson in Nb nucleus. We study the mechanism for this…
Recent investigations on optical nonlinearities of plasmonic materials suggest their responses may be even beyond the usual perturbative description. To better understand these surprisingly strong responses, we develop here a simple but…
The study of two-pseudoscalar and two-photon decays for the scalar meson nonet below 1 GeV is performed within an effective approach in which the scalar resonances are described as (Jaffe's) tetraquark states. The dominant (fall apart…
Kaon photo- and electroproduction off a proton near the production threshold are investigated by utilizing an isobar model. The background amplitude of the model is constructed from Feynman diagrams, whereas the resonance term is calculated…
Excited meson states can often lie hidden within mass spectra beneath more dominant resonances, making it difficult to extract their physical properties. We can unveil these states through amplitude analysis, which disentangles the…
Successive pairs of pseudo-random numbers generated by standard linear congruential transformations display ordered patterns of parallel lines. We study the ``ordered'' and ``chaotic'' distribution of such pairs by solving the eigenvalue…
We propose that the scalar $\kappa(800)$ meson may play an important role in $K^*$ photoproduction. In the reactions of $\gamma p \to K^{*+} \Lambda$ and $\gamma p \to K^{*0} \Sigma^+$, we consider the production mechanisms including…
A complete apparatus is defined as reacting to every state of the measured system. Standard quantum mechanics of indistinguishable particles is shown to imply that apparatuses must be incomplete or else they would be drowned out by noise.…
The kaon photoproduction is analyzed up to $E_\gamma^{\rm Lab}$=2.0 GeV by using an isobaric model based on effective Lagrangians and by taking a cross symmetry into account. Both {\it pseudovector} and {\it pseudoscalar} couplings for…
Forward photoproduction of $\pi^+\pi^-$ pairs with invariant mass of the order of $m_\rho\sim 770$ MeV is traditionally understood to be produced via Pomeron exchange. Based on a detailed analysis of the CLAS photoproduction data, it is…
Exclusive photoproduction of all vector mesons by real and virtual photons is considered in the Soft Dipole Pomeron model. It is emphasized that being the Pomeron in this model a double Regge pole with intercept equal to one, we are led to…
