We investigate the eta photoproduction using the effective Lagrangian approach at the tree level. We focus on the new nucleon resonance N*(1675), which was reported by the GRAAL, CB-ELSA and Tohoku LNS, testing its possible spin and parity states theoretically (J^P=1/2^+-,3/2^+-). In addition, we include six nucleon resonances, D_13(1520), S_11(1535), S_11(1650), D_15(1675), P_11(1710), P_13(1720) as well as the possible background contributions. We calculate various cross sections including beam asymmetries for the neutron and proton targets. We find noticeable isospin asymmetry in transition amplitudes for photon and neutron targets. This observation may indicate that the new resonance can be identified as a non-strangeness member of the baryon antidecuplet.

We investigate the sensitivity of the differential cross section, recoil nucleon polarization and the photon asymmetry to changes in the elementary amplitude, medium modifications of the resonance $(S_{11},D_{13})$ masses, as well as nuclear target effects. All calculations are performed within a relativistic plane wave impulse approximation formalism resulting in analytical expressions for all observables. The spin observables are shown to be unique tools to study subtle effects that are not accessible by only looking at the unpolarized differential cross section.
A study of the partial-wave content of the $gamma pto eta^prime p$ reaction in the fourth resonance region is presented, which has been prompted by new measurements of polarization observables for that process. Using the Bonn-Gatchina partial-wave formalism, the incorporation of new data indicates that the $N(1895)1/2^-$, $N(1900)3/2^+$, $N(2100)1/2^+$, and $N(2120)3/2^-$ are the most significant contributors to the photoproduction process. New results for the branching ratios of the decays of these more prominent resonances to $Neta^prime$ final states are provided; such branches have not been indicated in the most recent edition of the Review of Particle Properties. Based on the analysis performed here, predictions for the helicity asymmetry $E$ for the $gamma pto eta^prime p$ reaction are presented.
Revised analysis of $Sigma$ beam asymmetry for $eta$ photoproduction on the free proton reveals a resonant structure at $Wsim 1.69$ GeV. Comparison of experimental data with multipole decomposition based on the E429 solution of the SAID partial wave analysis and including narrow states, suggests a narrow ($Gamma leq 15$ MeV) resonance. Possible candidates are $P_{11}$, $P_{13}$, or $D_{13}$ resonances. The result is considered in conjunction with the recent evidence for a bump-like structure at $Wsim 1.67 - 1.68$ GeV in quasi-free $eta$ photoproduction on the neutron.
We analyze the CLAS data on the photoproduction of hyperon resonances, as well as the available data for the ground state $Lambda$ and $Sigma ^{0}$ of the CLAS and SLAC-E84 collaborations, by considering constituent-counting rule suggested by perturbative QCD. The counting rule emerges as a scaling behavior of cross sections in hard exclusive reactions with large scattering angles, and it enables us to determine the number of elementary constituents inside hadrons. Therefore, it could be used as a new method for identifying internal constituents of exotic-hadron candidates. From the analyses of the $gamma , p to K^{+} Lambda$ and $K^{+} Sigma ^{0}$ reactions, we find that the number of the elementary constituents is consistent with $n_{gamma} = 1$, $n_{p} = 3$, $n_{K^{+}} = 2$, and $n_{Lambda} = n_{Sigma ^{0}} = 3$. Then, the analysis is made for the photoproductions of the hyperon resonances $Lambda (1405)$, $Sigma (1385)^{0}$, and $Lambda (1520)$, where $Lambda (1405)$ is considered to be a $bar K N$ molecule and hence its constituent number could be five. However, we find that the current data are not enough to conclude the numbers of their constituent. It is necessary to investigate the higher-energy region at $sqrt{s} > 2.8$ GeV experimentally beyond the energy of the available CLAS data for counting the number of constituents clearly. We also mention that our results indicate energy dependence in the constituent number, especially for $Lambda (1405)$. If an excited hyperon is a mixture of three-quark and five-quark states, the energy dependence of the scaling behavior could be valuable for finding its composition and mixture.
The reactions $gamma pto eta p$ and $gamma pto eta p$ have been measured from their thresholds up to the center-of-mass energy $W=1.96$GeV with the tagged-photon facilities at the Mainz Microtron, MAMI. Differential cross sections were obtained with unprecedented accuracy, providing fine energy binning and full production-angle coverage. A strong cusp is observed in the total cross section and excitation functions for $eta$ photoproduction at the energies in vicinity of the $eta$ threshold, $W=1896$MeV ($E_gamma=1447$MeV). This behavior is explained in a revised $eta$MAID isobar model by a significant branching of the $N(1895)1/2^-$ nucleon resonance to both, $eta p$ and $eta p$, confirming the existence and constraining the properties of this poorly known state.
