The electroproduction of $K^+ \Lambda$ (1405) was studied by analyzing the E1F data set collected in Hall B at Jefferson Lab. The analysis utilized the decay channel $\Sigma^+ \pi^-$ of the $\Lambda$ (1405) and $p \pi^0$ of the $\Sigma^+$.…

The K^- p --> pi^0 pi^0 Sigma^0 reaction is studied within a chiral unitary model. The distribution of pi^0 Sigma^0 states forming the Lambda(1405) shows, in agreement with a recent experiment, a peak at 1420 MeV and a relatively narrow…
We report the first observation of the line shape of the $\Lambda(1405)$ from electroproduction, and show that it is not a simple Breit-Wigner resonance. Electroproduction of $K^+ \Lambda(1405)$ off the proton was studied by using data from…
