Introduction
Amplitude for the photon Compton forward scattering on quasi-free nucleon :
f = ε’∗ ε f1(ω) + i ω σ ε’* x ε f2(ω),
Where ε – invariant operator of the EM field, σ – spin operator of the nucleon, ω – photon energy.
At ω = 0 (low energy theorem): f1(0)=− (α / Ζ2 / Μ ), f2(0) = (α k 2 / 2M 2 ),
Where M – mass, α = e2 /4πqhc = 1/137, eZ – electric charge, k - nucleon anomalous magnetic moment .

Simulation of efficirncy
Computer program chain -
LAGGEN (LAGrange GENerator) - event generator to evaluate angular distributions for reaction products basing on existing experimental data. Geometrical efficiency – probability of particle to touch the detector.
LAGDIG (LAGrange DIGitation) – GEANT code for definite experimental conditions (thresholds, cluster size, cuts etc).Instrumental efficiency - probability for the particle to be measured in accordance with the detector response function
PREAN (PRE-ANalysis). Total efficiency - ratio of simulated events (obtained in accordance with the described above algorithm) to the total number of events simulated for selected reaction using the event generator.

Partial cross sections for one and double pion and η meson photo-production on free and quasi-free proton and quasi-free neutron
Red – free proton, green – quasi-free proton, blue – quasi-free neutron.
Specific media modification in different channels indicates thattwo nucleon correlations plays important role in addition to Fermi motion.

CONCLUSION
1. Total cross sections for proton and neutron are equal to each other within 5% of experimental accuracy (deuteron target). F15 (1680) resonance is seen in both cross sections. This means, probably that - free neutron cross section is equal to the free proton one in the nucleon resonance energy region - the door-way states in the first step of photon – nucleon interaction which is the sane for the proton and neutron, are possible.
2. Carbon cross section is practically coincides with the “universal curve” but lies in 30% below than the proton and deuteron one. This means that only Fermi motion can not explain modification of cross section in nuclear medium, even for light nuclei.
3. Total photoabsorption cross sections of heavy nuclei indicate contribution of high order electrodynamics processes in the Δ−resonance region. . Strong suppression of cross section above 1 GeV is not explained.
4. Exotic narrow resonance are not see neither in total nor in partial cross sections.
