Sensitivity to the pion-nucleon coupling constant in partial-wave analyses of elastic pi-N and NN scattering and pion photoproduction
We summarize results obtained in our studies of the pion-nucleon coupling
constant. Several different techniques have been applied to pi-N and NN elastic
scattering data, and the existing database for single-pion photoproduction. The
most reliable determination comes from pi-N elastic scattering. The sensitivity
in this reaction was found to be greater, by at least a factor of 3, when
compared with analyses of NN elastic scattering or single-pion photoproduction.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figure. Talk given at the Uppsala workshop on the
