Physics Theses & Dissertations

In this work the η/ meson photoproduction cross sections as well as the distribution of the di-pion invariant mass, m(π+π−), in the radiative decay mode η/ → π+π−γ have been measured using the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility using tagged incident photons in the center-of-mass energy range 1.96 GeV - 2.72 GeV. The measurements are performed on a liquid hydrogen target in the reaction γp → pη/(η/ → π+π−γ). The analysis is based on the …
