Preliminary Analysis of Photoproduction of<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mml:mi>K</mml:mi></mml:math>Mesons in the Mandelstam Representation

Abstract

The preliminary analysis essential for the application of the Mandelstam representation to the photoproduction of $K$ mesons has been carried out. The analytic properties of individual multipoles have been investigated and the positions of the singularities have been located.
