Partial-wave analyses (PWA) are an essential tool for studying resonance structures in decays with hadronic multi-body final states. For several years, more model-independent approaches to such analyses have been used for various decay…

One of the remaining challenges within the standard model is to gain a good understanding of QCD in the non-perturbative regime. A key step towards this aim is baryon spectroscopy, investigating the spectrum and the properties of baryon…

Pseudoscalar-meson photoproduction is characterized by four complex reaction amplitudes. A complete set is a minimum theoretical set of observables that allow to determine these amplitudes unambiguously. It is studied whether complete sets…
Amplitude- and truncated partial-wave analyses are combined into a single procedure and a novel, almost theory-independent single-channel method for extracting multipoles directly from measured data is developed. In practice, we have…
