Making use of the hybrid Regge-plus-resonance model, we investigate the process of kaon photoproduction off the proton target. We present a new model whose free parameters were adjusted to data in and above the resonance region and which…
Kaon photo-production process on $^{12}$C has been studied by measuring neutral kaons in a photon energy range of 0.8$-$1.1 GeV. Neutral kaons were identified by the invariant mass constructed from two charged pions emitted in the…

Assuming that the $\pi^+\pi^-$ photoproduction at forward angles and high energies is dominated by one pion exchange we calculate the $\pi^+\pi^-$ mass distributions for low partial waves. Predictions of the model agree well Assuming that…
We analyze the new threshold data for neutral pion photoproduction off protons in the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. We show that large loop corrections are needed to understand the S--wave multipole $E_{0+}$ and that…
The $\sigma$ meson exchange model for $\rho$ photoproduction at low energies is re-examined and a new model is developed by considering explicit two-pion exchange and the $f_2$ tensor meson exchange. The $f_2$ exchange model, which is…
The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) of Tibshirani (1996) is a prominent estimator which selects significant (under some sense) features and kills insignificant ones. Indeed the LASSO shrinks features lager than a…
We investigate the possibility that the process of $\rho^{0}$-meson photoproduction on proton, $\gamma+p\to p+\rho^{0}$, in the near threshold region $E_{\gamma}< 2$ GeV, can be considered in the framework of model with $\pi$-, $\sigma$-…
Pion and photo-induced inelastic reactions off protons are studied in a multichannel partial-wave analysis. Properties of nucleon and $\Delta$ resonances are derived and compared to previous analyses. Amplitudes are shown for transitions to…
