Combined analysis of eta' production reactions: gamma N -> eta' N, N N -> N N eta', and pi N -> eta' N
Abstract
The production of eta' mesons in photon- and hadron-induced reactions has been revisited in view of the recent additions of high-precision data to the world data base. Based on an effective Lagrangian approach, we have performed a combined analysis of the free and quasi-free gamma N -> eta' N, N N -> N N eta', and pi N -> eta' N reactions. Considering spin-1/2 and -3/2 resonances, we found that a set of above-threshold resonances S11, P11, P13, with fitted mass values of about MR=1925, 2130, and 2050 MeV, respectively, and the four-star sub-threshold P13(1720) resonance reproduce best all existing data for the eta' production processes in the resonance-energy region considered in this work. All three above-threshold resonances found in the present analysis are essential and indispensable for the good quality of the present fits.
