Recent $HERA$ data on the photoproduction of vector mesons are analysed within a "soft", dipole pomeron model. We argued that the data on $\sigma^{\gamma\rightarrow J/\psi}_{el}$ is consistent with a soft pomeron, the apparent rapid…

We develop the color dipole phenomenology of diffractive photo- and electroproduction $\gamma^{*}\,N\rightarrow V(V')\,N$ of light vector mesons ($V(1S) = \phi^0, \omega^0, \rho^0$) and their radial excitations ($V'(2S) = \phi', \omega',…
