The contributions from the Born terms including $s$, $u$, and $t$ channels are considered to calculate the amplitude, with which the cross sections are calculated and compared with preliminary CLAS data. The theoretical results indicate that the contribution from the $K$-exchange $t$ channel plays a dominant role for the $K^{\\ast 0}\\Lambda$ photoproduction. The contribution from the $\\kappa$ exchange is found one order of magnitude smaller than that from $K$ exchange. Both the Regge model and the Feynman model are applied to treat the $t$-channel contribution. The discrepancy between two models is found small in the energy range of CLAS data and predicted to become obvious at energies higher than 3 GeV. More precise experimental data especially at backward angles will be helpful to further understand the interaction mechanism of the $K^{\\ast 0}\\Lambda$ photoproduction.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-11-23T09:05:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "photoproduction", "contribution", "preliminary clas data", "preliminary experimental data", "precise experimental data" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevC.93.035202" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151107141W", "inspire": 1405985 } } }
