Correlations of Partial Waves for Multi-Reaction Analyses

arXiv:1603.07265 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.93.065205

Abstract

In the search for missing baryonic resonances, many analyses include data from a variety of pion- and photon-induced reactions. For elastic scattering, however, usually the partial waves of the SAID or other groups are fitted, instead of data. We provide the partial-wave covariance matrices needed to perform correlated fits, in which the obtained equals the actual up non-linear and normalization corrections. For any analysis relying on partial waves extracted from elastic pion scattering, this is a prerequisite to assess the significance of resonance signals and to assign any uncertainty on results. The influence of systematic errors is also considered.
