Abstract
Inclusive photoproduction of ϕ,K *0(890),\(\bar K*^0 \) andK *0(1420),\(\bar K*^0 \) has been studied in γp collisions with photons of energy 20 to 70 GeV and in the range 0.1≦x F ≦0.95 [0.4≦x F ≦0.8 for the\(\mathop K\limits^{( - )} *\)(1420)],x F being the Feynman variable of the vector/tensor meson. The cross-sections for these processes, averaged over the photon energy range and integrated overx F are given. The inclusive ϕ production in the forward direction can be described quantitatively by a triple-Regge model calculation. The remaining ϕ production and the totalK *0(890) and\(\bar K*^0 \) production are consistent with a quark fusion picture.
