Introduction: Puzzles of the Roper resonance
The state attracted special attention since its discovery because of its unexpectedly
low mass.
In the quark and bag models, assumption that P11(1440)≡[56,0+]r led to: large mass difference between nucleon and P11(1440), which is
several hundred MeV higher that the observed mass difference recent qLQCD simulations show even a much larger mass for
first excited state of the nucleon wrong mass ordering between P11(1440) and S11(1535) states Non-relativistic CQMs cannot explain sign of photo- coupling
amplitude A1/2 (S. Capstick, I. Aznauryan)
Introduction (continued)
However, right mass ordering between
P11(1440)≡ [56,0+]r and S11(1535) was observed in laterinvestigations:
• Chiral constituent QM with Goldstone-boson exchange between quarks
Glozman, et al., Phys.Rep. 268, 263 (1996)
• in Lattice QCD Mathur, et al., Phys.Lett. 605, 137 (2005)
…. but see talk by C. Gattringer
Introduction (continued)
Difficulties in the description of P11(1440) prompted the development of alternative descriptions of this state:
– a q3G hybrid baryon state – a dynamically generated πN resonance – a nucleon-sigma molecule
The results for γ*p→ P11(1440) extracted from experiments in a wide Q2 range will allow us to discriminate between different descriptions of the state.
Due to the lack of predictions from the P11(πN) and P11(Nσ) resonance models we can compare only with the P11(q3G) model
Analysis: CLAS data
New ep→eπ+n electroproduction data Q2=1.72, 2.05, 2.44, 2.91, 3.48, 4.16 GeV2
W=1.15-1.70 GeV
• Differential cross sections• Longitudinally polarized electron beam asymmetry Data have nearly full coverage in nπ+ cm system for
cosθ* and φ*> 33,000 differential cross sections, and > 3,000 electron beam asymmetries
Analysis: Dispersion relations and Unitary
Isobar Model Using two approaches allows us to draw conclusions on
the model dependence of the extracted results.
The main uncertainty of the analysis is related to the real parts of amplitudes which are built in DR and UIM in conceptually different way:
Analysis (continued)
The imaginary parts of the amplitudes are determined mainly by the resonance contributions:
For all resonances, except P33(1232), we use relativistic Breit-Wigner parameterization with energy-dependent width (Walker, PR 182 (1969) 1729 )
Combination of DR, Watson theorem, and the elasticity of t1+
3/2(πN ) up to W=1.43 GeV provide strict constraints on the M1+
3/2,E1+3/2,S1+
3/2 multipoles of the P33(1232) (Δ(1232)).

Analysis: Some points which are specific to high Q2
• From the analysis of the data at different Q2 = 1.7-4.2 GeV , we have obtained consistent results for fsub(t,Q2)
• fsub(t,Q2) has relatively flat behavior, in contrast with π
contribution:
Analysis: some points which are specific to high Q2 (continued)
The background of UIM we use at large Q2 consists of the Born term and t-channel ρ and ω contributions
•
At high Q2, a question can arise if there are additional t-channel contributions, which due to the gauge invariance, do not contribute at Q2=0, e.g. π(1300), π(1670), scalar dipole transitions for h1 (1170),
b1(1235), a1(1260) …
Such contributions are excluded by the data.
Analysis (continued)
Fitted parameters: amplitudes corresponding to: P33(1232),
P11(1440) , D13(1520) , S11(1535)
F15 (1680)
Amplitudes of other resonances, in particular those with masses around 1700 MeV, were parameterized according to the SQTM or the results of analyses of previous data
Including these amplitudes into the fitting procedure did not change the results

Comparison with quark models P11(1440)≡[56,0+]r
With increasing Q2, the proper treatment of relativistic effects becomes very important The consistent way to realize relativistic calculations of γN→N* transitions is to consider them in LF dynamics
In LF calculations, the diagrams that violate impulse approximation are removed
In the nonrel. approach of Cano et al., these diagrams are found using VDM and the 3P0 model
Discussion: LF quark model predictions P11(1440)≡[56,0+]r
LF CQM predictions have common features, which agree with data: • Sign of A1/2 at Q2=0 is negative
• A1/2 changes sign at small Q2
• Sign of S1/2 is positive 1.Weber, PR C41(1990)2783 2.Capstick..PRD51(1995)3598

Summary
We have extracted transverse and longitudinal amplitudes of the γ*p→ P11(1440) transition from experimental data at high Q2 using the nπ+ final state.
The DR analysis and the UIM analysis give consistent results
The results rule out the description of the P11(1440) as a q3G hybrid state due to the strong longitudinal response obtained from the experiment for γ*p→ P11(1440)
Summary (continued)
Comparison with quark model predictions provide evidence in favor of the P11(1440) as a radial excitation of the nucleon
Final confirmation of this conclusion requires a complete, and simultaneous description of the nucleon form factors and the γ*p→ P11(1440) amplitudes

Integrated cross section shows peak structure near W=1.7 GeV or/and dip structure near W=1.66 GeV.
We heard several times that the γn→nη, data show peak structure at 1650-1680 MeV, and γp→ηp did not show this structure.
A new resonance is claimed that couples only to neutrons and not to protons: talks by: H. Shimizu, V. Kuznetsov, and others.

S-wave dominance and s-p wave interference in ep→epη
S11(1535) is seen in angle-independent term A0, at all Q2. A1/A0 shows existence of P-wave strength interfering with the dominant s-wave. Good fit achieved with P11(1710) with Γ=100 MeV, and: ξP11(1710) /ξS11(1535) =0.22.
Using only S11 and P11 partial waves the cross section can be qualitatively described. The observation is consistent with a rapid change in the relative phase of the E0+ and M1- multipoles because one of them is passing through resonance.
CLAS
Conclusions on γ*p→ P11(~1700)
• P-wave is needed to fit the data. Interference with S11 shows resonance near 1650 MeV in η production off proton.
• In a 4 resonance fit of S11(1535), D13(1520), S11(1650) and P11, a reasonable fit is obtained with P11 mass M ~ 1650 MeV, width Γ=100 MeV.
• There is no need for a new P11 state as long as P11(1710) parameters (mass, width, bηp) are not well established.
Abstract of publication:“A sharp structure is seen near W ~ 1.7 GeV. The shape of the differential cross section is indicative of the presence of a P-wave resonance that persists to high Q2.”
