Study of $N(1440)$ structure via ${\gamma }^{\ast }p\to N(1440)$ transition

Abstract

We study the photoproduction of the $N(1440)$ resonance in ${\gamma }^{\ast }p\to N^{\ast }$ process in quark models, where the $N(1440)$ takes different wave functions: first radial excitation of the nucleon imported from low-lying baryon mass spectrum calculations, a general radial excitation of the nucleon, and a $q^3$ state with positive parity. The comparison between the theoretical results and experimental data on the helicity amplitudes $A_{1/2}$ and $S_{1/2}$ and the analysis of the spatial wave function of the $N(1440)$ resonance reveal that the $N(1440)$ resonance is mainly the $q^3$ first radial excitation.
