We report on the results of the first measurement of exclusive $f_0(980)$ meson photoproduction on protons for $E_gamma=3.0 - 3.8$ GeV and $-t = 0.4-1.0$ GeV$^2$. Data were collected with the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. The resonance was detected via its decay in the $pi^+ pi^-$ channel by performing a partial wave analysis of the reaction $gamma p to p pi^+ pi^-$. Clear evidence of the $f_0(980)$ meson was found in the interference between $P$ and $S$ waves at $M_{pi^+ pi^-}sim 1$ GeV. The $S$-wave differential cross section integrated in the mass range of the $f_0(980)$ was found to be a factor of 50 smaller than the cross section for the $rho$ meson. This is the first time the $f_0(980)$ meson has been measured in a photoproduction experiment.

Results are presented for the first measurement of the double-polarization helicity asymmetry E for the $eta$ photoproduction reaction $gamma p rightarrow eta p$. Data were obtained using the FROzen Spin Target (FROST) with the CLAS spectrometer in H
all B at Jefferson Lab, covering a range of center-of-mass energy W from threshold to 2.15 GeV and a large range in center-of-mass polar angle. As an initial application of these data, the results have been incorporated into the Julich model to examine the case for the existence of a narrow $N^*$ resonance between 1.66 and 1.70 GeV. The addition of these data to the world database results in marked changes in the predictions for the E observable using that model. Further comparison with several theoretical approaches indicates these data will significantly enhance our understanding of nucleon resonances.
Differential cross sections for the gamma p -> pi^0 p reaction have been measured with the A2 tagged-photon facilities at the Mainz Microtron, MAMI C, up to the center-of-mass energy W=1.9 GeV. The new results, obtained with a fine energy and angular
binning, increase the existing quantity of pi^0 photoproduction data by ~47%. Owing to the unprecedented statistical accuracy and the full angular coverage, the results are sensitive to high partial-wave amplitudes. This is demonstrated by the decomposition of the differential cross sections in terms of Legendre polynomials and by further comparison to model predictions. A new solution of the SAID partial-wave analysis obtained after adding the new data into the fit is presented.
The $a_0^0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing is one of the most potential tools to learn about the nature of $a_0^0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$. Using the $f_0(980)$-$a_0^0(980)$ mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ measured recently at BESIII, we calculate the the branching rat
io of the the isospin violation decay $J/psi rightarrowgammaeta_c rightarrow gamma pi^0 a_0^0(1450)rightarrow gamma pi^0 a_0^0(980)f_0(500)rightarrow gamma pi^0 f_0(980) f_0(500) rightarrow gamma pi^0 pi^+pi^- pi^+pi^-$. The value of the branching ratio is found to be $O(10^{-6})$, which can be observed with $10^{10}$ $J/psi$ events collected at BESIII. The narrow peak from the $f_0(980)$-$a_0^0(980)$ mixing in the $pi^+pi^-$ mass square spectrum can also be observed. In addition, we study the non-resonant decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) pi^+pi^-(text{non-resonant})$, which is dominated by the $a_0^0(980)$-$f_{0}(980)$ mixing. We find that the non-resonant decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) pi^+pi^-$ and the decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) f_0(500)$ can be combined to measure the mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ in experiment. These decays are the perfect complement to the decay $chi_{c1}rightarrow f_{0}(980)pi^{0}topi^{+}pi^{-}pi^{0}$ which had been observed at BESIII, the observations of them will make the measurement of the mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ more precisely.
We make a theoretical study of the $eta(1405) to pi^{0} f_0(980)$ and $eta(1405) to pi^{0} a_0(980)$ reactions with an aim to determine the isospin violation and the mixing of the $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ resonances. We make use of the chiral unitar
y approach where these two resonances appear as composite states of two mesons, dynamically generated by the meson-meson interaction provided by chiral Lagrangians. We obtain a very narrow shape for the $f_0(980)$ production in agreement with a BES experiment. As to the amount of isospin violation, or $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ mixing, assuming constant vertices for the primary $eta(1405)rightarrow pi^{0}Kbar{K}$ and $eta(1405)rightarrow pi^{0}pi^{0}eta$ production, we find results which are much smaller than found in the recent experimental BES paper, but consistent with results found in two other related BES experiments. We have tried to understand this anomaly by assuming an I=1 mixture in the $eta(1405)$ wave function, but this leads to a much bigger width of the $f_0(980)$ mass distribution than observed experimentally. The problem is solved by using the primary production driven by $eta to K^* bar K$ followed by $K^* to K pi$, which induces an extra singularity in the loop functions needed to produce the $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ resonances. Improving upon earlier work along the same lines, and using the chiral unitary approach, we can now predict absolute values for the ratio $Gamma(pi^0, pi^+ pi^-)/Gamma(pi^0, pi^0 eta)$ which are in fair agreement with experiment. We also show that the same results hold if we had the $eta(1475)$ resonance or a mixture of these two states, as seems to be the case in the BES experiment.
We report on the measurement of the $gamma p rightarrow J/psi p$ cross section from $E_gamma = 11.8$ GeV down to the threshold at $8.2$ GeV using a tagged photon beam with the GlueX experiment. We find the total cross section falls toward the thresho
ld less steeply than expected from two-gluon exchange models. The differential cross section $dsigma /dt$ has an exponential slope of $1.67 pm 0.39$ GeV$^{-2}$ at $10.7$ GeV average energy. The LHCb pentaquark candidates $P_c^+$ can be produced in the $s$-channel of this reaction. We see no evidence for them and set model-dependent upper limits on their branching fractions $mathcal{B}(P_c^+ rightarrow J/psi p)$ and cross sections $sigma(gamma p to P_c^+)timesmathcal{B}(P_c^+ to J/psi p) $.
