Mukhopadhyay %A Nilmani Mathur %J Physics %D 1998 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/S0370-2693(98)01372-0 %X Recently obtained polarized target and photon asymmetry data in eta photoproduction are shown to be very powerful, in conjunction with the differential cross-section data, in yielding model-insensitive constraints on the electrostrong parameters for the excitation and decay of the $N^{*}(1520)$ resonance. The extracted ratio of its electromagnetic helicity amplitudes, $A_{3/2}/A_{1/2}$, provides a critical test for the QCD-inspired hadron models. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/nucl-th/9807003v2
