Electroproduction ofϕ(1020)mesons at1.4Q23

Abstract: Electroproduction of exclusive φ vector mesons has been studied with the CLAS detector in the kinematic range 1.4 Q 2 3.8 GeV 2 , 0.0 t 3.6 GeV 2 , and 2.0 W 3.0 GeV. The scaling exponent for the total cross section as 1/(Q 2 + M 2 φ ) n was determined to be n = 2.49 ± 0.33. The slope of the four-momentum transfer t distribution is b φ = 0.98 ± 0.17 GeV −2 . Under the assumption of s-channel helicity conservation, we determine the ratio of longitudinal to transverse cross sections to be R = 0.86 ± 0.24. A two-… Show more

“…For light vector mesons, Q 2 ranges from Q 2 =0 GeV 2 up to 100 GeV 2 in the high W domain, where there are data from the H1 [33,34,35], ZEUS [36,37,38,39,40,41,42] and HERMES [43] (HERA) and E665 (Fermilab) [44] experiments. At low W , experiments at CORNELL [45] and with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab [46,47,48,49,50] have measured the ρ 0 , ω and φ electroproduction channels up to Q 2 =5 GeV 2 . For the heavy mesons, there are electroproduction data only for the J/Ψ from HERA [51,54]; otherwise, there are photoproduction data coming from the H1 [52], ZEUS [53], LHCb [55,56,57,58] and ALICE [59] experiments and a few fixed target data at low energies.…”

“…Teryaev et al [39] suggest that the so-called D term [40] which we neglect in our parametrization of the GPDs, may generate this effect. However, since the sharp drop of the cross section between 2 and 4 GeV is also seen in ρ + production [41] but not in the φ cross section [42] this explanation must be taken with care. In any case below about 3 GeV there seems to be an additional strong dynamical mechanism beyond our handbag approach and the pion pole.…”

“…The latest version [7] of the two gluon exchange model also leads to a fair description of the sparse available data in the φ meson electro-production. Figure 21 shows the evolution of the total cross section with Q 2 in the HERA high energy range (< W >= 90 GeV), the HERMES intermediate energy range (< W >= 5 GeV ) and the JLab energy range [39] close to threshold (< W >= 2.4 GeV). Since the data correspond to a large bin in W , the curves correspond to the mean value and the two limits of the bin.…”
