Role of a triangular singularity in the γ p → p π0 η reaction — •Volker Metag and Mariana Nanova for the CBELSA/TAPS collaboration — II. Physikalisches Institut, Universität Giessen, Giessen
Recently structures in invariant mass distributions and excitation energy spectra have been attributed to triangular singularities as discussed in e.g., [1,2] and in the review by Guo et al. [3]. These singularities emerge under specific kinematic conditions when new reaction channels open up. It will be shown that a triangular singularity associated with the opening of the γ p → p a0 → p π0 η channel can explain the observation of a structure in the Mpη invariant mass distribution near 1700 MeV/c2 in the γ p → p π0 η reaction [4].
