Electro- and Photoproduction of Vector Mesons at Jefferson Lab

Conference ·
OSTI ID:829663

The total and differential cross section for exclusive electro- and photoproduction of vector mesons in the resonance region and above (1.6 < W < 2.9 GeV) was measured at Jefferson Laboratory in a wide kinematic range (0 < Q2 < 4 GeV2 and 0< -t < 5 GeV2). The measurement of the total and differential cross section down to 100 pb/GeV2 with the full kinematic coverage, was possible for the first time thanks to the combination of the 100% duty cycle of CEBAF and the large acceptance of the CLAS detector. The main results from the CLAS Collaboration activity in this field will be presented and discussed.
