In-medium modifications of the S11(1535) resonance and eta photoproduction

Abstract

We investigate the influence of possible in-medium modifications of the S11(1535) in eta photoproduction in nuclei. Besides Fermi motion, Pauli blocking and binding effects also collisional broadening is accounted for. The in-medium width is obtained from a realistic resonance-hole model. Results on eta photoproduction are obtained from a semi-classical BUU transport model and compared with data. We find that calculations including a momentum dependent nucleon and resonance potential are in agreement with the recent KEK data. In contrast, collisional broadening has only little influence.
