Models of baryon structure predict a small quadrupole deformation of the nucleon due to residual tensor forces between quarks or distortions from the pion cloud. Sensitivity to quark versus pion degrees of freedom occurs through the $Q^2$…

We refine our previous calculation of multipole amplitude $E_{0+}$ for pion photoproduction process, $\gamma N\rightarrow\pi N$. The treatment of final-state interactions is based upon an earlier analysis of pion-nucleon scattering within…
We construct a model for the weak pion production off the nucleon, which in addition to the weak excitation of the $\Delta(1232)$ resonance and its subsequent decay into $N\pi$, it includes also some background terms required by chiral…
The E2/M1 ratio (EMR) of the $\Delta$(1232) is extracted from the world data in pion photoproduction by means of an Effective Lagrangian Approach (ELA).This quantity has been derived within a crossing symmetric, gauge invariant, and chiral…
Semi-inclusive processes are very promising to investigate $XYZ$ hadrons at the next generation of electron-hadron facilities, because they generally boast higher cross sections. We extend our formalism of exclusive photoproduction to…
