Abstract
New cross sections for the reaction ep --> ep eta are reported for total ce nter of mass energy W = 1.5-1.86 GeV and invariant momentum transfer Q(2) = 0.25-1.5 (GeV/c)(2). This large kinematic range allows extraction of impor tant new information about response functions, photocouplings, and etaN cou pling strengths of baryon resonances. Newly observed structure at W similar to 1.65 GeV is shown to come from interference between S and P waves and c an be interpreted with known resonances. Improved values are derived for th e photon coupling amplitude for the S-11(1535) resonance.
