Abstract

The reaction γp→π0γ′p has been measured with the TAPS calorimeter at the Mainz Microtron accelerator facility MAMI for energies between s√=1221–1331  MeV. The cross section’s differential in angle and energy have been determined for the photon γ′ in three bins of the excitation energy. This reaction channel provides access to the magnetic dipole moment of the Δ+(1232) resonance and, for the first time, a value of μΔ+=[2.7+1.0−1.3(stat)±1.5(syst)±3(theor)]μN has been extracted.
