The $\rho^0-\omega$ interference has been studied in the dilepton invariant mass distribution spectra in the photonuclear reaction, but that is not done for the gamma-nucleon reaction. Recent past, the $e^+e^-$ invariant mass distribution…
A model for the pion photoproduction on nuclei in the $A\left({\gamma ,\, \pi NN} \right)B$ reaction is presented. This is an extension of our recent model for the $A\left({\gamma ,\, \pi N} \right)B$ reaction. In this approach we have…
Differences in the photoproduction of mesons on the free proton and on nuclei are expected to reveal changes in the properties of hadrons. Inclusive studies of nuclear photoabsorption have provided evidence of medium modifications. However,…
We suggest that the $\gamma p \to \phi \eta p$ reaction cross section, in the kinematics where the $\eta p$ invariant mass in the final state lies between the threshold value (m$_p$+m$_\eta$) and the N*(1535) resonance mass, is largely…
The $\pi^0 \gamma$ invariant mass distribution spectra in the $ (\gamma, \pi^0\gamma) $ reaction were measured by TAPS/ELSA collaboration to look for the hadron parameters of the $\omega$ meson in Nb nucleus. We study the mechanism for this…
We investigate the reaction mechanism of the $\phi$-meson photoproduction off the proton target, i.e., $\gamma p\to\phi p$, up to $\sqrt{s}=2.8$ GeV. For this purpose, we employ an effective Lagrangian approach in the tree-level Born…
The $\sigma$-exchange and $f_2$-exchange mechanisms for $\rho$ meson photoproduction are re-examined. Then the commonly employed $\sigma$-exchange amplitude is revised by using the recent information from the analyses on the $\rho \to…

The $\gamma n \to \pi^0 n$ differential cross section evaluated for 27 energy bins span the photon-energy range 290-813 MeV (W = 1.195-1.553 GeV) and the pion c.m. polar production angles, ranging from 18 deg to 162 deg, making use of…
Differential cross sections of the reaction $p(d,^3{\rm He})\gamma$ have been measured at deuteron laboratory energies of 110, 133 and 180 MeV. The data were obtained with a coincidence setup measuring both the outgoing $^3$He and the…
We investigate the discovery potential of the $a_1(1260)$ photoproduction in the $\gamma p \to a_1(1260)^+ n$ and $\gamma p \to \pi^+\pi^+\pi^- n$ reactions via the $\pi$-exchange mechanism. For the $\gamma p \to \pi^+\pi^+\pi^- n$…
A resonance model for two-pion production in the pion-nucleon reaction is developed that includes information obtained in the analysis of pion-nucleon scattering in a meson-exchange model. The baryonic resonances Delta(1232), N*(1440),…
First we calculate cross section for the $\gamma p \to \omega p$ reaction from the threshold to very large energies. At low energies the pion exchange is the dominant mechanism. At large energies the experimental cross section can be well…
