Vector- and tensor-meson production and the Pomeron-f identity hypothesis

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
Within the context of a model introduced some time ago, the differential and total production cross sections for vector and tensor mesons are shown to be compatible with the hypothesis that the Pomeron and f are a single Regge trajectory. The model incorporates both cylinder and flavoring renormalizations of the Pomeron-f trajectory. The processes K/sup +- /p..-->..K/sup */(892)/sup +- /p, K/sup +- /p ..-->..K/sub 2//sup */(1430)/sup +- /p, and ..pi../sup +- /p..-->..A/sub 2/(1320)/sup +- /p are analyzed in some detail.
