We study polarization variables in the photoproduction of omega-mesons with subsequent omega to gamma pi^0 decay. Single and double polarization observables are calculated as a function of different final-state angles. Reaction models…
We investigate $\rho$-meson photoproduction in a coupled-channels formulation. It is shown that channel coupling effects are large and account for discrepancies observed in several single-channel treatments.
Photoproduction of $ K\Sigma^{*}(1385)$ on the nucleon is investigated within the Regge framework and the reaction mechanism is analyzed based on the data existing in the channels $\gamma p\to K^+\Sigma^{*0}$ and $\gamma n\to…
The omega production in nucleon-nucleon collisions is described through the decay of intermediate nuclear resonances. Close to threshold the pp --> pp omega cross section is dominated by the off-shell production of omega mesons with masses…
The contribution of the tensor meson $K_2^*(1430)$ exchange in the process $\gamma p\to K^+\Lambda(\Sigma^0)$ is investigated within the Regge framework. Inclusion of the $K_2^*$ exchange in the $K(494)+K^*(892)$ exchanges with the coupling…
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…
Exclusive photoproduction of all vector mesons by real and virtual photons is considered in the Soft Dipole Pomeron model. It is emphasized that being the Pomeron in this model a double Regge pole with intercept equal to one, we are led to…
We have evaluated pseudoscalar and scalar neutral pion photoproduction in $\vec{\gamma}p\to\pi^0p$ and $\vec{\gamma}p\to a_0^0p$ above the resonance region and within Regge phenomenology. Our fit, including GlueX $\Sigma$ pseudoscalar…
We discuss the problem of gauge invariance of the vector meson photoproduction at small $x$ within the two-gluon exchange model. It is found that the gauge invariance is fulfilled if one includes the graphs with higher Fock states in the…
Some selected topics in photoproduction are reviewed. In particular, the focus is on quasi-real photon-proton scattering as measured at HERA. Single & dijet rates and jet profiles are discussed, as are open charm production and inelastic…
A theoretical model of two-pion photoproduction is presented. The model encodes the prominent $\rho(770)$ resonance and the expected leading background contribution coming from the Deck mechanism. To validate the model, angular moments are…
The $\omega$-meson photoproduction, $\gamma+p\to p+\omega$, is studied in the framework of a model, containing $\pi$-meson exchange in t-channel and nucleon-exchange in s- and u-channels. Considering both $\omega NN$-coupling constants in…

New high-precision total and differential cross sections for $\eta$ and $\eta'$ photoproduction on the proton obtained by the A2 Collaboration at the Mainz Microtron are presented. The data for $\eta$ photoproduction demonstrate a cusp at…

The cross section for the $A(e,e'\gamma)A$ reaction is calculated, investigating the contribution from the nuclear target with respect to the radiative corrections from the electron. The reaction mechanism is studied for photon emission in…
