description

The isobar models η-MAID and η′-MAID have been used to analyze new data on quasi-free η photoproduction on the deuteron from Bonn and recent η′ data on the proton from Jlab. In η photoproduction on the neutron a bump around W = 1700 MeV was observed which could possibly arise from a narrow P11 state that is discussed as a non-strange member of the Θ+ antidecuplett. In η′ photoproduction on the proton resonance contributions are found that can be attributed to missing resonances in the energy region around W = 1900 MeV .
