Vector Meson Photoproduction with a Linearly Polarized Beam
Abstract
We propose a model based on Regge theory to describe photoproduction of light vector mesons. We fit the SLAC data and make predictions for the energy and momentum transfer dependence of the spin-density matrix elements in photoproduction of ω, 0 and φ mesons at Eγ 8.5 GeV, which are soon to be measured at Jefferson Lab.
