The electroproduction of rho mesons is studied at HERA with the H1 detector at high Q^2 and high |t|. Cross sections are measured as a function of Q^2, W and t. The W dependence of the gamma*-p cross section is observed to increase with Q^2…

Quasi-elastic (z >0.95) photo-production of psi' mesons has been observed at HERA for photon-proton centre-of-mass energies in the range 40 to 160 GeV. The psi' mesons were identified through their decays to l+l- and to J/psi pi+ pi-, where…

The energy dependence of cross sections is discussed as a way to learn about the dynamics of photon induced interactions at HERA. The question of determining the scale of exclusive electroproduction of vector mesons is addressed.
In the framework of non-perturbative QCD we calculate high-energy diffractive production of vector mesons $\rh, \rh'$ and $\rh''$ by real and virtual photons on a nucleon. The initial photon dissociates into a $q\bar{q}$-dipole and…
We quantify perturbative and non-perturbative QCD effects in the exclusive $J/\psi$-photoproduction cross section, and in the shrinkage of the differential cross section with respect to momentum transfer, $t$. We predict that in the high…
