Nucleon excited states

γ p → π+ n

B. G. Ritchie - MENU 2013 - October 2013

• As a composite system, the nucleon has a specific spectrum of excitations: the nucleon resonances.

• This nucleon resonance spectrum has many broad overlapping states, making disentangling the spectrum difficult.

Models predict (lots of)excitations • Many nucleon models have offered

“predictions” for the nucleon resonance spectrum --• constituent quark model• diquark • collective models• instanton-induced interactions• flux-tube models• lattice QCD• (your favorite here) - BUT…

• THE BIG MYSTERY: Most models

predict many more resonance states than have been observed.

Example: R.G. Edwards et al. Phys. Rev. D87 054506 (2013)

Example: Lattice QCD results for N* resonances• Noticeable change as the π mass

becomes more realistic

• Number of low-lying states (boxed regions) remains the same for the two π-masses, and generally is the same as NRQMs

• Many of these predicted states are poorly determined or missing.

Theoretical analyses In the plots that follow, you will see many curves from:• SAID: A two-stage PWA where

• stage 1 is the fit to data• stage 2 is the extraction of resonance parameters

• BnGa (Bonn-Gatchina): A single stage PWA• MAID: Isobar analysis

Note: The SAID results labeled “new” in this section of the talk include the new Σ data from ASU/CLAS. Later sections of the talk show SAID results that do not have the new Σ data included.

“Isospin filters”• Final states of ηp and K+Λ systems have isospin ½ , and limit

one-step excited states of the proton to be isospin ½. • Thus, the final states ηp and K+Λ can serve as isospin filters

to the resonance spectrum.

A “complete” set of clues:Self-analyzing reaction K+ Y (hyperon)

• Hyperon weak decay allows extraction of hyperon polarization by looking at the decay distribution of the baryon in the hyperon center of mass system:

cos1)(cos 21

YPI

where I is the decay distribution of the baryon, α is the weak decay asymmetry (αΛ= 0.642 and αΣ0 = -⅓ αΛ), and PY is the hyperon polarization.

• Get recoil polarization information without a recoil polarimeter: the reaction is “self-analyzing”.

• No preliminary results yet, but data will be forthcoming.

Conclusions • Spin observables will

tremendously aid in sleuthing out resonance parameters and finding missing resonances (if they exist)

• Photon experiments in Hall-B with FroST at JLab have acquired hundreds of data points yielding clues to the missing resonances

• For most reaction channels, we will have data sufficient for a nearly complete experiment

Conclusions (cont’d)

• For K Λ and K Σ channels, we will have a complete experiment

• Double-pion observables offer a “next generation” probe of reaction mechanisms and resonances

• Data for some reactions and some observables are nearing the publication stage, but much work remains – STAY ON THE CASE!
