ANL-Osaka Partial-WaveAmplitudes (PWA)

This web page presents the partial-wave amplitudes of meson-baryon reactions determined from the Argonne National Laboratory-Osaka University (ANL-Osaka) dynamical coupled-channel analysis of the data of pion-nucleon and photon-nucleon reactions in the invariant mass W ≤ 2.0 GeV region.

Channels included in the model are γN, πN, ηN, KΛ, KΣ, ππN ( π∆, ρN, σN). About 30,000 data points are included in the fits with about 350 model parameters which define phenomenologically the meson-exchange interactions between the considered meson-baryon channels and the quark-gluon excitations of the nucleon to about 20 excited states. The resulting partial-wave amplitudes can be used to:

(1) Extract nucleon resonance parameters,
(2) investigate meson production reactions on nuclei in the nucleon resonance region,
(3) predict the medium effects on the propagation of mesons and nucleon resonances in hadron matter.

The development of the ANL-Osaka model and the formula for using the PWA presented on this web page to calculate cross sections can be found here:

The results presented here are from the analysis reported in

H. Kamano, S.X Nakamura, T.-S. H. Lee, T. Sato, Phys. Rev. C 88, 035209(2013) S.X. Nakamura, H.Kamano, T. Sato, Phys. Rev. D 92, 074024 (2015) H. Kamano, S.X. Nakamura, T.-S. H. Lee, T. Sato, Phys. Rev. C 94, 015201 (2016)

The quality of the fit to the data can be seen from comparing the the predicted total cross sections with the available data

Total cross sections: πp -> MB-1 Total cross sections: πp -> MB-2 Total cross sections: γp -> MB Total cross sections: πp, γp -> X Total cross sections: p(e,e') X
