    Single Quark Transition Model Analysis of Electromagnetic Nucleon Resonance Excitations

    We apply the single quark transition model to resonance transition amplitudes extracted from photo- and electroproduction data. We use experimental data on the S11(1535), and D13(1520) nucleon resonances to extract the amplitudes for the electromagnetic transition from the nucleon ground state [56,0+] to the [70,1-] supermultiplet, and make predictions for the transition amplitudes of all other states associated with the [70,1-]. We compare the predictions with data and find surprisingly good agreement. The comparison is hampered by the poor data quality for many of the states especially in the electroproduction sector.
