Single Quark Transition Model Analysis of Electromagnetic Nucleon Resonance Transitions in the [70,1-] Supermultiplet

Abstract

We apply the single quark transition model to resonance transition amplitudes extracted from photo-and electroproduction data. We use experimental data on the S11(1535) and D13(1520) nucleon resonances to extract the amplitudes for the electromagnetic transition from the nucleon ground state to the [70,1-] SU(6)xO(3) supermultiplet, and make predictions for the transition amplitudes of all other states associated with the [70,1-]. We find suprisingly good agreement with the data.
