The reaction above threshold in heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory
J. Zhang, N. Mobed, M. Benmerrouche
We study the reaction and in heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory of chiral order three from threshold up to pion laboratory kine…
Nuclear dependence of the coherent eta photoproduction reaction in a relativistic approach

Coherent eta-photoproduction from nuclei in a relativistic impulse approximation approach
J. Piekarewicz, A. J. Sarty, M. Benmerrouche
We study coherent eta-photoproduction from nuclei in a relativistic impulse approximation approach. For the elementary production amplitude we use a standard relativistic parameter…
Model-Independent Extraction of the N*(1535) Electrostrong Form Factor from Eta Electroproduction
M. Benmerrouche, Nimai C. Mukhopadhyay, J. -F. Zhang
We analyze the existing data on electroproduction of eta mesons in the region of W~1.5GeV, and extract an electrostrong form factor for the N*(1535) electroexcitation and decay int…

M. Benmerrouche, G. Orlandini, T. G. Steele
Making use of QCD sum rules a lower bound is found which relates the electromagnetic polarizability and mean-square radius of charged pions through…

Nimai C. Mukhopadhyay, J. -F. Zhang, M. Benmerrouche
From the new Mainz data of eta photoproduction off protons\cite{ref1} and deuterons\cite{ref2}, we can extract, via the effective Lagrangian approach (ELA)\cite{ref3}, the electros…
Extraction of the Ratio of the N^*(1535) Electromagnetic Helicity Amplitudes from Eta Photoproduction off Neutrons and Protons
Nimai C. Mukhopadhyay, J. -F. Zhang, M. Benmerrouche
Using the recent precise measurements of eta photopro- duction in proton and deuteron targets, we extract the ratio of the helicity amplitudes A^n_1/2 / A^p_1/2, for the excitation…
Photoproduction of the Etas near Threshold
Nimai C. Mukhopadhyay, J. -F. Zhang, M. Benmerrouche
We extract a parameter , a characteristic product of the strong and electromagnetic amplitudes for the N^*(1535), to be (2.20+-0.15) in unit of 10^(-4)MeV^(-1) from the new data…

We discuss the eta and eta prime photo- and electroproduction as a way to probe the nucleon resonance structure.
Constraints on QCD Sum-rules from the Hölder Inequalities
M. Benmerrouche, G. Orlandini, T. G. Steele
A new technique based on Hölder's integral inequality is applied to QCD sum-rules to provide fundamental constraints on the sum-rule parameters. These constraints must be satisfied…
