Abstract
We present an effective-Lagrangian description for forward-angle K+ Lambda photoproduction from the proton, valid for photon lab energies from threshold up to 16 GeV. The high-energy part of the amplitude is modeled in terms of t-channel Regge-trajectory exchange. The sensitivity of the calculated observables to the Regge-trajectory phase is investigated in detail. The model is extended towards the resonance region by adding a number of s-channel resonances to the t-channel background. The proposed hybrid ``Regge-plus-resonance'' (RPR) approach allows one to exploit the p(gamma,K+)Lambda data in their entirety, resulting in stronger constraints on both the background and resonance couplings. The high-energy data can be used to fix the background contributions, leaving the resonance couplings as the sole free parameters in the resonance region. We compare various implementations of the RPR model, and explore to what extent the description of the data can be improved by introducing the ``new'' resonances D13(1900) and P11(1900). Despite its limited number of free parameters, the proposed RPR approach provides an efficient description of the p(gamma,K+)Lambda dynamics in and beyond the resonance region.
