The „complete” experiment
A complete model independent partial wave analysis demands:
- and 3 single polarisation observables
- 4 properly chosen double polarisation observables

summary
- Polarisation observables are necessary to describe the nucleon
excitation spectrum by a partial wave analysis without ambiguities.
- With the Crystal Barrel/TAPS setup @ ELSA it is possible to measure
single and double polarisation observables in different reaction channels.
- These measured datasets provide new constraints for the partial wave
analysis.

and photoproduction
- The nucleon excitation spectrum has overlapping resonances.
- For a complete description of the spectrum with a partial wave analysis, it is
necessary to measure polarisation observables.

Production of linearily polarised photons
- with a goniometer different bremsstrahl radiators can be positioned in the
beam with high accuracy
- coherent scattering of the beam on a diamond cristal creates polarisation
degrees of up to 65%
- photons are tagged in energy by a tagging spectrometer system
