Abstract
An experimental study of photoproduction on the proton was conducted by using the Crystal Ball and TAPS multiphoton spectrometers together with the photon tagging facility at the Mainz Microtron MAMI. The differential cross sections are measured from threshold to the incident-photon energy GeV GeV for the center-of-mass energy) with 15-MeV binning in and full production-angle coverage. The quality of the present data near threshold gives access to a variety of interesting physics aspects. As an example, an estimation of the scattering length is provided.
