New Results on the Electroproduction Cross Sections off Protons
In these proceedings we present preliminary
electroproduction cross sections off protons in the kinematical area of 1.4 GeV
1.8 GeV and 0.4 GeV GeV. Our results extend
the kinematical coverage for this exclusive channel with respect to previous
measurements. Furthermore, the electroproduction cross
sections were obtained for -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 evolution of the transition
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

Measurements of the Gamma(Upsilon)p -\u3e p ’pi(+)Pi(- )Cross Section with the CLAS Detector for 0.4 GeV2 \u3c Q(2) \u3c 1.0 GeV2 and 1.3 GeV \u3c W \u3c 1.825 GeV
New results on the single-differential and fully integrated cross sections for the process γvp -\u3e p\u27π+π- are presented. The experimental data were collected with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Laboratory. Measurements were carried out in the kinematic region of the reaction invariant mass W from 1.3 to 1.825 GeV and the photon virtuality Q2 from 0.4 to 1.0 GeV2. The cross sections were obtained in narrow Q2 bins (0.05 GeV2) with the smallest statistical uncertainties achieved in double-pion electroproduction experiments to date. The results were found to be in agreement with previously available data where they overlap. A preliminary interpretation of the extracted cross sections, which was based on a phenomenological meson-baryon reaction model, revealed substantial relative contributions from nucleon resonances. The data offer promising prospects to improve knowledge on the Q2 evolution of the electrocouplings of most resonances with masses up to similar to ~ 1.8 GeV

First Results on Nucleon Resonance Photocouplings from the γp → π+π−p Reaction
We report the first experimental measurements of the nine 1-fold differential cross sections for the γ p → π+π−p reaction, obtained with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Laboratory. The measurements cover the invariant mass range of the final state hadrons from 1.6 GeV \u3c W \u3c 2.0 GeV. For the first time the photocouplings of all prominent nucleon resonances in this mass range have been extracted from this exclusive channel. Photoproduction of two charged pions is of particular importance for the evaluation of the photocouplings for the Δ (1620)1/2−, Δ (1700)3/2−, N(1720)3/2+, and Δ (1905)5/2+ resonances, which have dominant decays into the π π N final states rather than the more extensively studied single meson decay channels
