Photoproduction experiments provide a key to finding new baryonic
resonances. New precise measurements of polarization observables emerge
from FROST at JLab and from other facilities around the world like ELSA
and MAMI, allowing to determine the multipoles and baryonic resonance
parameters to much increased precision. The impact from FROST data is
discussed and improvements for future...

Partial-wave analysis of experimental data provides the point
of comparison between many theoretical approaches and Nature. The
parametrization of partial waves is guided by theoretical principles of
scattering theory and effective approaches to QCD; however, data
themselves can be used to find the simplest model from a large class of
possible ones, to deliver a minimally parametrized yet...

We review some of the recent achievements of the Joint Physics Analysis Center, a theoretical collaboration with ties to experimental collaborations, which aims at providing amplitudes suitable for the analysis of the experimental data on hadron physics. Since its foundation in 2013, the group is focused on hadron spectroscopy in preparation for the present and forthcoming high statistics...

We will present on the recently approved Jefferson Lab experiment E12-16-007 which aims at measuring the $J/\psi$ photoproduction cross section as a function of proton momentum transfer variable $t$ and photon energy $E\gamma$ in the region of the recently discovered LHCb charmed pentaquark $P_{c}(4380)$ and $P_{c}(4450)$ resonances. The experiment will be performed using the Hall C HMS and...

The BABAR Collaboration has an intensive program studying hadronic cross sections in
low-energy e+e- annihilations, accessible via initial-state radiation.
Our measurements allow significant improvements in the precision of the
predicted value of the muon anomalous magnetic moment.
These improvements are necessary for shedding light on the current ~3 sigma
difference between the...
