Photoproduction of $\Lambda$ and ${\Sigma }^0$ hyperons using linearly polarized photons

CLAS Collaboration, C. A. Paterson, D. G. Ireland +2

Background: Measurements of polarization observables for the reactions $\vec{\gamma }p\to K^{+}\Lambda$ and $\vec{\gamma }p\to K^{+}{\Sigma }^0$ have been performed. This is part of a programm…
