Photoproduction of poh on protons
► Identification of g p → po h p reaction► Total cross section► Differential cross sections
► Data fitting► Beam helicity asymmetry
► Spin observables
In collaboration with A. Fix and M. Ostrick
- 4 or 5 clusters (4 of them are neutrals)- invariant mass for all possible gg combinations (4 photons give 3 independent combinations) - c2 minimization and cut - background subtraction using missing mass distributions for each energy or angular bin

g p → po h p
Reaction identification
The best combination of gg pairs after c2 minimization and rejection of po
po events. Two entries for each event corresponding to the two photon pair.

g p → po h p
Data fitting
The quality of the phenomenological analysis can be greatly improvedby accumulating additional data.
For example,polarization observables on protons and neutrons.
The simplest of them: Beam helicity asymmetry only circularly polarized photon beam
Such a data was taken already!
D. Krambrich, F. Zehr et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 052002 (2009) pp Sc = in experimental data analysis:
Usually is analized as fp dependence in the helicity system and may be expanded over function sin nfp (n is integer)
n is determined by the orbital momenta of the contributing resonances
Pure D33(1700) provides only sin fp term
P31(1750), P33(1600), F35(1905) appear in the sin 2fp term due tointerference with D33(1700)
sin 3fp term coming from the interference between s and d waves inthe D33 h D decay

Spin observables
Our future plans are connected with the proposal A2-09/09:“Spin observables for ph photoproduction in D33(1700) region”
We will measure the transverse spin observables T and F
We need:- circulary polarized photon beam (only for F);- transversely polarized proton target frozen-spin butanol (C4H9OH) target
Disadvantage: additional background from reactions on 12C and 16O
Estimation of this background: - analysis of data taken with a carbon target using the same procedure as for runs with LH2 target; -normalization of the photon flux to LH2 target run; - taking into account the number of 12C nuclei in a carbon target with respect to butanol (16O = 4/3 12C)
