Project description

A specific model, developed within the research group, will be used in a profound study of kaon photoproduction and electroproduction off nucleons and nuclei above the resonance region. The required "high"-energy data will be provided by the updated Jefferson Lab electron accelerator. One of the main issues that will receive special attention is the longitudinal, transversal and interference cross section in p(e,eK+)∧ reactions.
