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…

Effects of non-resonant photoproductions arising from two different $\pi NN$ couplings are investigated in the $\gamma N\to\pi\pi N$ reaction. We find that the pseudoscalar (PS) $\pi NN$ coupling is generally preferable to the pseudovector…
