Measurement of the helicity asymmetry E for the reaction γp→π${}^0$p

A measurement of the double-polarization observable E for the reaction γp→π${}^0$p is reported. The data were taken with the CBELSA/TAPS experiment at the ELSA facility in Bonn using the Bonn frozen-spin butanol (C${}_4$H${}_9$OH) target, which provided longitudinally-polarized protons. Circularly-polarized photons were produced via bremsstrahlung of longitudinally-polarized electrons. The data cover the photon energy range from E${}_{\gamma }$=600 to 2310 MeV and nearly the complete angular range. The results are compared to and have been included in recent partial wave analyses.
