Exclusive vector meson production reactions such as Au+ Au→ Au+ Au+ V, where V= ρ, ω, φ, or J/ψ, can proceed through photon-Pomeron and photon-meson interactions. Photons …

Direct photons have been proposed as a promising signature for the quark–gluon plasma (QGP) formation in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Recently WA98 presented the first data …
Vector mesons are produced copiously in peripheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Virtual photons from one ion can fluctuate into quark-antiquark pairs and scatter from the second …
