$\pi^{0}$ electroproduction in the resonance region.

ORAL

Abstract

We report the analysis of single $\pi^{0}$ electroproduction in the resonance region to study the electromagnetic excitation of nucleon resonances. The study is aimed at understanding of the internal structure and dynamics of the nucleon. The experiment was performed using an unpolarzied cryogenic hydrogen target and 2.0 GeV polarized electron beam during the e1f run period with CLAS at Jeffeson Lab. The new measurements will produce a data base with high statistics and large kinematic coverage for the hadronic invariant mass W up to 1.9 GeV in the momentum transfer $Q^{2}$ range of 0.3 - 1.0 GeV$^{2}$. Preliminary partial wave analysis results will be presented and compared with the various model calculations.
