Description

The Laser-Electron-Photon facility at SPring-8 (LEPS) is now taking data for all hadronic reactions at compton-backscattered photon energies between 1.5 GeV and 2.4 GeV. A linearly polarized photon beam is incident on a liquid hydrogen target or nuclear targets. A large dipole spectrometer analyzes charged particles produced at forward angles. First results from SPring-8/LEPS will be presented with special emphasis on the study of photoproduction of φ mesons near threshold. Some prospects for the near future will also be presented and discussed in close connection with photoproduction of hyperons
