Exclusive photoproduction of omega mesons at Fermilab energies

Thesis/Dissertation ·
OSTI ID:5356595
Data are analyzed from a photoproduction experiment (E152) at Fermilab with a tagged photon beam of energy ranging from 52 to 127 GeV. A procedure for the isolation of exclusive (elastic and quasi-elastic) final states containing (multi) showering particles is worked out. The channel ..gamma..p ..-->.. ..omega..p, ..omega.. ..-->.. ..pi../sup 0/..gamma.., ..pi../sup 0/ ..-->.. ..gamma gamma.. is analyzed. A preliminary measurement of the cross section, its dependence on beam energy and on 4-momentum transfer is performed. The differential cross section exhibits a forward exponential peak with a slope b = 8.0 +- 2.1 in good agreement with previous experiments.
