Chiral dynamics in theγp→π0ηpandγp→π0K0Σ+reactions

2006

Using a chiral unitary approach for meson-baryon scattering in the strangeness zero sector, where the ${N}^{*}(1535){S}_{11}$ resonance is dynamically generated, we study the reactions $\ensuremath{\gamma}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}\ensuremath{\eta}p$ and $\ensuremath{\gamma}p\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{0}{K}^{0}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{+}$ at photon energies at which the final states are produced close to threshold. Among several reaction mechanisms, we find the most important is the excitation of the ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}^{*}(1700){D}_{33}$ state, which subsequently decays into a pseudoscalar meson and a baryon belonging to the $\ensuremath{\Delta}(1232)…
