of the nucleon and its excitations. One of the key issues is to identify

With new data of unprecedented accuracy from ELSA, JLab, MAMI, and other facilities the reliable extraction of the the spectrum of excited baryons becomes into reach. Besides experimental advances, the phenomenological analysis of the data has made much progress in the last years.

Prof. Alfred Svarc (Rudjer Boskovic Institute)13/03/2017, 15:00Topic 1: Spectroscopy of Baryons, Light- and Heavy-Quark Mesons
For quite some time it is well known that single-channel physical observables are invariant with respect to a general energy and angle dependent phase rotation. This invariance is called continuum ambiguity. We show that, contrary to well-behaved energy dependent invariance, angle dependent phase rotation mixes multipoles, and changes their analytic structure. A direct consequence is that...

We perform partial wave analysis of the eta photo production data. In an iterative procedure, fixed-t amplitude analysis (FT AA) and conventional single energy partial wave analysis (SE PWA) are coupled in such a way that output from one analysis is used as an constraint in another. The fixed-t analyticity in the fixed-t amplitude analysis is imposed by using Pietarinen's expansion...

In a fit of the $\bar B_{d,s}^0 \to J/\psi\pi\pi$ spectrum to data we fix several parameters, whose number is reduced significantly compared to a phenomenological analysis. Using these...

Mr Yannick Wunderlich (Helmholtz-Institut fuer Strahlen- und Kernphysik)13/03/2017, 18:30Topic 1: Spectroscopy of Baryons, Light- and Heavy-Quark Mesons
As it is well-known for a long time now, the observables in a single-channel scattering problem remain invariant once the amplitude is multiplied by an overall phase. This phase is generally allowed to depend on a full set of independent kinematic variables for the considered process. For a 2-body reaction, this means that the phase can depend on energy and angle.
For partial wave analysis...

Prof. Adam Szczepaniak (iu)14/03/2017, 09:45
Large data sets in light meson spectroscopy from fixed target experiments are challeng-ing standard analysis methods in meson spectroscopy. On the one hand, they allow for innovative methodology but at the same time require a more profound and exact under-standing of underlying hadronic physics.

The measurement of the excitation spectrum of light-quark hadrons often requires to apply partial-wave analysis methods. The building blocks of the physical models used in such analyses are the partial waves, which describe the quantum numbers and the decay paths of the resonances. In diffractive reactions, in principle, infinitely many of these waves can contribute. However, for finite data...

Dr Lukasz Bibrzycki (Pedagogical University of Cracow)14/03/2017, 16:30Topic 1: Spectroscopy of Baryons, Light- and Heavy-Quark Mesons
The t-channel reggeon exchange is the dominant mechanism of the high energy photoproduction of di-meson resonances on nucleons. The resulting amplitude naturally factorizes into initial production of meson pairs and subsequent final state interaction, which can be described in terms of binary amplitudes satisfying the constraints of unitarity and analyticity. However, for the final states...

Finding evidence for the existence of exotic states is one of the most exciting aspects of modern hadron physics. In the meson sector, it is possible to have a `smoking gun' signature of a genuine exotic nature provided by certain charge-mass combinations and $J^{PC}$-configurations that cannot be explained by a quark-antiquark pair. Observations of several candidates were claimed by...

We are developing a software framework for Partial Wave and Amplitude Analysis called PyPWA. The PyPWA project aims to develop modular and flexible software that links to existing codes and Python libraries. The software also provides direct access to the JLab computing resources. The software contains a general-shell where amplitude's parameters (or any parametric model) can be estimated...

The considerable amount of data on three-body decays of mesons which has

become available in recent years has revived interest in the dispersive
formalism of Khuri and Treiman as a powerful analysis tool. We consider here
the isospin breaking eta -> 3 pi amplitude which is specific in that both the
low-energy chiral expansion and dispersion relation techiques can be
applied. We reconsider an... -

A precise understanding of low-energy pion-nucleon interactions is central for many areas in nuclear and hadronic physics, ranging from the scalar couplings of the nucleon to the long-range part of two-pion-exchange potentials and three-nucleon forces in Chiral Effective Field Theory. We present a calculation that combines the general principles of analyticity, unitarity, and crossing symmetry...

The D*0(2400) is the known lightest non-strange scalar meson. In this talk, we study the D-pi, D-eta, and Ds Kbar scattering amplitudes in the context of unitarized Heavy Meson Chiral Perturbation Theory. We show that there are actually two poles in this energy region. Having fixed the value of the free parameters from previous works, we make a prediction of the energy levels of the system...

Fundamental interactions of components of matter are not yet fully understood. Some basic

questions such as: how do the quarks, light constituents of the proton and neutron sum up
to provide the visible mass of nucleons? Why the mediator of the strong interaction does not
show up in the spectrum of hadrons? Are the three quarks and quark-antiquarks configurations the only
possible? The... -

Pseudoscalar-meson photoproduction on the nucleon is of current interest for hadron reaction studies. At low energies it provides information about the nucleon spectrum, while at high energies it reveals details of the residual hadron interactions due to cross-channel particle (Reggeon) exchanges. These two regimes are analytically connected, a feature that can be used to relate properties of...

Transition form factors are uniquely suited to trace the evolution of baryon degrees of freedom by measuring exclusive single-meson and double-pion electroproduction cross sections off the free proton. Recent efforts try to access their isospin dependence by analyzing the cross sections off the quasi-free neutron and proton in Deuterium. In the near future, these exclusive measurements will be...

Prof. Stephan Paul (Physik Department - Technische Universitaet Muen)Topic 1: Spectroscopy of Baryons, Light- and Heavy-Quark Mesons
Large data sets in light meson spectroscopy from fixed target experiments are challeng-ing standard analysis methods in meson spectroscopy. On the one hand, they allow for innovative methodology but at the same time require a more profound and exact under-standing of underlying hadronic physics. Partial wave analysis now is a standard tool used across all experiments including heavy meson...
