New Results on the π+π−\pi^{+}\pi^{-} Electroproduction Cross Sections off Protons

In these proceedings we present preliminary $\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ electroproduction cross sections off protons in the kinematical area of 1.4 GeV $< W <$ 1.8 GeV and 0.4 GeV$^{2}$ $< Q^{2} < 1.1$ GeV$^{2}$. Our results extend the kinematical coverage for this exclusive channel with respect to previous measurements. Furthermore, the $\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ electroproduction cross sections were obtained for $Q^2$-bins of much smaller size. The future analysis of this data within the framework of the JLAB-MSU reaction model (JM) will considerably improve our knowledge on the $Q^2$ evolution of the transition $\gamma_{v}NN^*$ electrocouplings, in particular for the resonances with masses above 1.6 GeV.Comment: Will be published in proceedings of NSTAR 2011 conference. 4 pages, 4 figure

Electroexcitation of nucleon resonances at Q^2=0.65 GeV/c^2 from a combined analysis of single- and double-pion electroproduction data

Data on single- and double-charged pion electroproduction off protons are successfully described in the second and third nucleon resonance regions with common N* photocouplings. The analysis was carried out using separate isobar models for both reactions. From the combined analysis of two exclusive channels, the gamma* p --> N*+ helicity amplitudes are obtained for the resonances P11(1440), D13(1520), S31(1620), S11(1650), F15(1680), D33(1700), D13(1700), and P13(1720) at Q2=0.65 GeV/c^2.Comment: 12 pages, 12 figures (eps), Published in PHYSICAL REVIEW C 72, 045201 (2005

Electroproduction of pπ+π− off protons at 0.2

This paper reports on the most comprehensive data set obtained on differential and fully integrated cross sections for the process ep→e′pπ+π−. The data were collected with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Laboratory. Measurements were carried out in the as yet unexplored kinematic region of photon virtuality 0.

Model Analysis of the ep→ep′π+π−ep \to ep'\pi^+\pi^- Electroproduction Reaction on the Proton

Recent CLAS data on the $p\pi^+\pi^-$ electroproduction off protons at 1.3$<$W$<$1.57 GeV and 0.25$<$$Q^{2}$$<$0.6 GeV$^{2}$ have been analyzed using a meson-baryon phenomenological model. By fitting nine 1-fold differential cross section data for each $W$ and $Q^{2}$ bin, the charged double pion electroproduction mechanisms are identified from their manifestations in the observables. We have extracted the cross sections from amplitudes of each of the considered isobar channels as well as from their coherent sum. We also obtained non-resonant partial wave amplitudes of all contributing isobar channels which could be useful for advancing a complete coupled-channel analysis of all meson electroproduction data.Comment: Experiment Numbers: E93-006, E94-005 Group: Hall

Phenomenological analysis of the CLAS data on double charged pion photo and electro- production

First comprehensive data on the evolution of nucleon resonance photocouplings with photon virtuality Q^2 are presented for excited proton states in the mass range from 1.4 to 2.0 GeV. N^* photocouplings were determined in phenomenological analysis of CLAS data on 2 pi photo and electroproduction within the framework of the JLAB-MSU phenomenological model.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures (encapsulated postscript
