Amplitude reconstruction from complete experiments and truncated partial-wave expansions
arXiv:1611.04434 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.95.015206
Abstract
We compare the methods of amplitude reconstruction, for a complete experiment and a truncated partial wave analysis, applied to the photoproduction of pseudo-scalar mesons. The approach is pedagogical, showing in detail how the amplitude reconstruction (observables measured at a single energy and angle) is related to a truncated partial-wave analysis (observables measured at a single energy and a number of angles).
