Differential cross sections for $gamma p to K^+Lambda(1405)$ and $gamma p to K^+Sigma^0(1385)$ reactions have been measured in the photon energy range from 1.5 to 2.4 GeV and the angular range of $0.8<cos(Theta)<1.0$ for the $K^+$ scattering angle in the center-of-mass system. This data is the first measurement of the $Lambda(1405)$ photoproduction cross section. The lineshapes of LamS measured in $Sigma^+pi^-$ and $Sigma^-pi^+$ decay modes were different with each other, indicating a strong interference of the isospin 0 and 1 terms of the $Sigmapi$ scattering amplitudes. The ratios of LamS production to SigS production were measured in two photon energy ranges: near the production threshold ($1.5<E_gamma<2.0$ GeV) and far from it ($2.0 <E_gamma<2.4$ GeV). The observed ratio decreased in the higher photon energy region, which may suggest different production mechanisms and internal structures for these hyperon resonances.

Differential cross sections and photon beam asymmetries for $pi^0$ photoproduction have been measured at $E_gamma$ = 1.5--2.4 GeV and at the $pi^0$ scattering angles, --1 $<$ cos$Theta_{c.m.} <$ --0.6. The energy-dependent slope of differential cross sections for $u$-channel $pi^0$ production has been determined. An enhancement at backward angles is found above $E_gamma$ = 2.0 GeV. This is inferred to be due to the $u$-channel contribution and/or resonances. Photon beam asymmetries have been obtained for the first time at backward angles. A strong angular dependence has been found at $E_gamma >$ 2.0 GeV, which may be due to the unknown high-mass resonances.
The aim of the present analysis is to determine the relative production cross sections of the $Lambda$(1405) and $Sigma(1385)^{0}$ resonances in p+p collisions at E$_{kin}$=3.5 GeV measured with HADES. Upper and lower limits have been determined for the ratio $sigma_{(Sigma(1385)^{0}+p+K^{+})}/sigma_{(Lambda(1405)+p+K^{+})}=0.76_{-0.26}^{+0.54}$. The knowledge of this ratio is an essential input for the analysis of the decay $Lambda(1405)rightarrowSigma^{pm}pi^{mp}$, where an unambiguous separation of the $Lambda$(1405) and $Sigma(1385)^{0}$ signals is not possible.
We report measurements of the photon beam asymmetry $Sigma$ for the reactions $vec{gamma}pto ppi^0$ and $vec{gamma}pto peta $ from the GlueX experiment using a 9 GeV linearly-polarized, tagged photon beam incident on a liquid hydrogen target in Jefferson Labs Hall D. The asymmetries, measured as a function of the proton momentum transfer, possess greater precision than previous $pi^0$ measurements and are the first $eta$ measurements in this energy regime. The results are compared with theoretical predictions based on $t$-channel, quasi-particle exchange and constrain the axial-vector component of the neutral meson production mechanism in these models.
The $Sigma(1385)$ resonance, or $Sigma^*$, is well-known as part of the standard baryon decuplet with spin $J=3/2$. Measurements of the reaction $gamma p to K^+ Sigma^{*0}$ are difficult to extract due to overlap with the nearby $Lambda(1405)$ resonance. However, the reaction $gamma n to K^+ Sigma^{*-}$ has no overlap with the $Lambda(1405)$ due to its charge. Here we report the first measurement of cross sections and beam asymmetries for photoproduction of the sigs from a deuteron target. % where the $K^+$ and $pi^-$ are detected in the LEPS spectrometer. The cross sections at forward angles range from 0.4 to 1.2 $mu$b, with a broad maximum near $E_gamma simeq 1.8$ GeV. The beam asymmetries are negative, in contrast to postive values for the $gamma n to K^+Sigma^-$ reaction.
We report the measurement of the $gamma p rightarrow K^{+}Lambda$ and $gamma p rightarrow K^{+}Sigma^{0}$ reactions at SPring-8. The differential cross sections and photon-beam asymmetries are measured at forward $K^{+}$ production angles using linearly polarized tagged-photon beams in the range of $E_{gamma}=1.5$--3.0 GeV. With increasing photon energy, the cross sections for both $gamma p rightarrow K^{+}Lambda$ and $gamma p rightarrow K^{+}Sigma^{0}$ reactions decrease slowly. Distinct narrow structures in the production cross section have not been found at $E_{gamma}=1.5$--3.0 GeV. The forward peaking in the angular distributions of cross sections, a characteristic feature of $t$-channel exchange, is observed for the production of $Lambda$ in the whole observed energy range. A lack of similar feature for $Sigma^{0}$ production reflects a less dominant role of $t$-channel contribution in this channel. The photon-beam asymmetries remain positive for both reactions, suggesting the dominance of $K^{*}$ exchange in the $t$ channel. These asymmetries increase gradually with the photon energy, and have a maximum value of +0.6 for both reactions. Comparison with theoretical predictions based on the Regge trajectory in the $t$ channel and the contributions of nucleon resonances indicates the major role of $t$-channel contributions as well as non-negligible effects of nucleon resonances in accounting for the reaction mechanism of hyperon photoproduction in this photon energy regime.
