Vector Meson Production at HERA
J. R. Cudell, I. Royen
Abstract
We show that the lowest-order QCD calculation in a simple model of elastic vector-meson production does reproduce correctly the ratios of cross sections for rho, phi and J/psi, both in photoproduction and in high-Q2 quasi-elastic scattering. The dependence of the slopes on the mass of the vector meson is reproduced as well. We examine the lower-energy data, and find that the energy dependence of the cross section does not depend on Q2, but may depend on the vector-meson mass.
