The reaction γp→pπ0η has been studied with the CBELSA/TAPS detector at the electron stretcher accelerator ELSA in Bonn for incident photon energies from threshold up to 3.1 GeV. This paper has been ...motivated by the recently claimed observation of a narrow structure in the MNη invariant mass distribution at a mass of 1678MeV/c2. The existence of this structure cannot be confirmed in the present work. Instead, for Eγ = 1400–1500 MeV and the cut Mpπ0≤1190MeV/c2 a statistically significant structure in the Mpη invariant mass distribution near 1700 MeV/c2 is observed with a width of Γ≈35MeV/c2 while the mass resolution is σres = 5 MeV/c2. Increasing the incident photon energy from 1420 to 1540 MeV this structure shifts in mass from ≈ 1700 MeV/c2 to ≈ 1725 MeV/c2; the width increases to about 50 MeV/c2 and decreases thereafter. The cross section associated with this structure reaches a maximum of ≈ 100 nb around Eγ≈ 1490 MeV (W ≈ 1920 MeV), which coincides with the pa0 threshold. Three scenarios are discussed which might be the origin of this structure in the Mpη invariant mass distribution. The most likely interpretation is that it is due to a triangular singularity in the γp→pa0→pπ0η reaction.
A measurement of the double-polarization observable E for the reaction γp→π0p is reported. The data were taken with the CBELSA/TAPS experiment at the ELSA facility in Bonn using the Bonn frozen-spin ...butanol (C4H9OH) target, which provided longitudinally-polarized protons. Circularly-polarized photons were produced via bremsstrahlung of longitudinally-polarized electrons. The data cover the photon energy range from Eγ=600 to 2310 MeV and nearly the complete angular range. The results are compared to and have been included in recent partial wave analyses.
