Beam-Target Helicity Asymmetry for →γ→n→π−p in the N∗Resonance Region
2017
We report the first beam-target double-polarization asymmetries in the γ þ nðpÞ → π− þ pðpÞ reaction
spanning the nucleon resonance region from invariant mass W ¼ 1500 to 2300 MeV. Circularly polarized
photons and longitudinally polarized deuterons in solid hydrogen deuteride (HD) have been used with the
CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab. The exclusive final state has been
extracted using three very different analyses that show excellent agreement, and these have been used to
deduce the E polarization observable for an effective neutron target. These results have been incorporated
into new partial wave analyses and have led to significant revisions for several γnN* resonance
photocouplings.
