Abstract
We investigate photoproduction off the neutron target, i.e., , employing an effective Lagrangian method combining with a Regge approach. As a background, we consider nucleon exchange in the -channel diagram and - and -meson Regge trajectories in the channel. The role of nucleon resonances given in the Review of Particle Data Group in the range of and the narrow nucleon resonance is extensively studied. The numerical results of the total and differential cross sections, double polarization observable , helicity-dependent cross sections , , and the Legendre coefficients of the angular distributions for , are found to be in qualitative agreement with the recent A2 experimental data. The predictions of the beam asymmetry are also given.
