Test of the reaction mechanism for gamma N -> K Lambda(1520) using the   polarized photon
  We study the reaction mechanism for the photoproduction of the Lambda(1520), based on an effective Lagrangian approach. We investigate each contribution of the s-, u-, t-channel processes and contact term, separately. One of the most characteristic features of this reaction is the contact-term dominance which governs the photoproduction from the proton, when the K*-exchange contribution is possibly not too large. We suggest several different ways of the polarizations and arrangement of the beam and target to make to understand the role of each contribution separately in future experiments.
