New high-precision total and differential cross sections for $\eta$ and $\eta'$ photoproduction on the proton obtained by the A2 Collaboration at the Mainz Microtron are presented. The data for $\eta$ photoproduction demonstrate a cusp at…

The differential cross section for the process p(e,e'p)eta has been measured at Q^2 = 2.4 and 3.6 (GeV/c)^2 at center-of-mass energies encompassing the S11(1535) resonance. The latter point is the highest-Q^2 exclusive measurement of this…
