摘要
We address the issue of unbiased model selection and propose a methodology based on Bayesian inference to extract physical information from kaon photoproduction gamma p -> K+ Lambda data. We use the single-channel Reggeplus-resonance (RPR) framework for gamma p -> K+ Lambda to illustrate the proposed strategy. The Bayesian evidence Z is a quantitative measure for the model's fitness given the world's data. We present a numerical method for performing the multidimensional integrals in the expression for the Bayesian evidence. We use the gamma p -> K+ Lambda data with an invariant energy W > 2.6 GeV in order to constrain the background contributions in the RPR framework with Bayesian inference. Next, the resonance information is extracted from the analysis of differential cross sections and single- and double-polarization observables. This background and resonance content constitutes the basis of a model, which is coined RPR-2011. It is shown that RPR-2011 yields a comprehensive account of the kaon photoproduction data and provides reasonable predictions for e + p -> e' + K+ + Lambda observables.
