Outline
Results on the g * pP11(1440), D13(1520), S11(1535) helicity
amplitudes extracted from CLAS p and 2p electroproduction data,
comparison with earlier data
Correct definition of the amplitudes : very important as
Q2 dependence of the g* NN* amplitudes extracted in wide region
of Q2 is highly sensitive to different description of N and N* :
- 3q picture
- additional qq components
- hybrid q3G states
- resonances dynamically generated in p N interaction
- results of lattice QCD

Definitions: common sign of the g*p N* amplitudes
In the analyses of g*N N p data, the g*p N* helicity
amplitudes are defined through reaction multipole amplitudes.
For example, for g*p P11(1440) in g*p p p0 we have:
This definition contains
information on signs of
two vertices
g*NN* and N*Np :

Possibly, it will be right to make some changes in conventions to
avoid this confusion, for example, to reflect in the amplitude
extracted from experiment the final state: A
ApN, …?
In QM, traditionally, the sign pNN* was chosen to describe
the sign of the experimental A1/2 amplitude for Q2=0;
sometimes this can bring to confusing and wrong results

Definition of the g*p N* amplitudes (con-d)
In this way, we have also checked, which definition of
gives the sign consistent with the relative sign of the amplitudes
extracted from experiment, i.e. S1/2 relatively to A1/2, A3/2
We have presented different definitions of A1/2, A3/2, S1/2 :
Through the g*N N p multipole amplitudes
Through the g*N N* electromagnetic current
Through the g*N N* form factors
In nonrelativistic quark model
These definitions are consistent with each other,
and may be useful in theoretical calculations
Common sign of the g*p N* amplitudes (con-d)
For the resonances of [70,1- ] –plet, common signs of the
g*p N* amplitudes in quark model were found
(using PCAC for the pN N* vertex) by
Aznauryan, Bagdasaryan, Sov.J.Nucl.Phys. 41 (1985) 158
For all resonances, except D13(1700), traditionally used
sign is right
For P11(1440), sign of the g*p N* amplitudes was found
using 3Po model for the pN N* vertex by

Combined with the difficulties
in the description of large width
of S11(1535)  h N and large
S11(1535)  fN,LK couplings,
this shows that 3q picture for
S11(1535) should be complemented

sign should be consistent with the
interference of (uu,dd) and ss
components in G(S11 (1535)hp)
It is possible that agreement of 3q picture with experimental
data will be achieved by taking into account pion cloud
contribution and additional qqqqq components in S11(1535)
Summary
For the first time transverse and longitudinal amplitudes of the
g* p P11(1440) transition are extracted from experiment for
Q2 > 0 in wide range of Q2
For the first time longitudinal amplitudes of the
g* p D13(1520), S11(1535) transitions are extracted from
experiment, and in wide range of Q2
For the first time definite results are obtained for the transverse
amplitudes of the g* p D13(1520) transition in wide range
of Q2
The results for the g* p S11(1535) transverse amplitude
extracted from p and h electroproduction data are consistent
with each other
Summary: P11(1440)
The results for g* p P11(1440) available in wide region of Q2
allow us to make conclusions on the nature of P11(1440):
Comparison with quark model predictions provides strong
evidence in favor of P11(1440) as a first radial excitation of the
3q ground state
Presentation of P11(1440) as a q3G hybrid state is ruled out
Quark model predictions underestimate the value of A1/2
at small Q2
Pion cloud contributions and additional qq components in the
Roper resonance can improve description of A1/2 at small Q2
Summary: D13(1520), S11(1535)
Quark models describe the signs of all amplitudes for
the g* p D13(1520) transition
There is significant underestimation at small Q2 for A3/2 which
apparently is related to the pion cloud contribution
Quark models predict opposite sign for the S1/2 amplitude of the
g* p S11(1535) transition !!! Combined with the difficulties
in the description of couplings to hadronic channels, this shows
that 3q picture for S11(1535) should be complemented
Apparently, agreement of 3q picture with experimental data can
be achieved by taking into account pion cloud contribution,
and additional qqqqq components in S11(1535)
Summary: definitions
of the g* N N* amplitudes
The g* N N* amplitudes extracted from the experimental data
on the g* N Np reaction are related to
the g* N N* amplitudes calculated in theoretical approaches
through the sign of the pNN* vertex
Possibly, it makes sense to introduce new conventions in order
to avoid confusion caused by this fact
S11 (1535) as a dynamically generated resonance
Dynamically
generated S11 (1535):
Oset… , nucl-th/0712.0038
sign should be checked via
calculation of the vertex
S11 (1535)pN in addition
to g*p S11 (1535)
For both signs, presentation
of S11 (1535) as only dynamically
generated resonance is ruled out.
However, it is interesting to
investigate the possibility of the
dynamically generated resonance as
a component additional to 3q state.
