Strangeness photoproduction with CLAS at Jefferson Lab

Conference ·
OSTI ID:801505
The CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab has been used to measure the elementary photoproduction of kaons and hyperons in the energy range of the nucleon resonances. Data have been obtained for the reactions gamma + p --> K{sup +} + {Lambda}, Sigma{sup o}, Lambda(1405)/Sigma(1385), Lambda(1520). These channels test our understanding of pseudoscalar meson photoproduction, and may extend our knowledge of the spectrum of non-strange baryons which decay to strangeness-containing final states.
