Helicity Softer Dipole Pomeron Model for Vector Meson Photoproduction by Arbitrarily Polarized Photons
Abstract
Understanding the spin dynamics of strong interactions from the nonperturbative to the perturbative regime remains a challenge. Regge pole theory offers a phenomenological framework, but existing models fail to simultaneously describe cross sections and polarization observables. Here we present a model with the Softer Dipole Pomeron--a dipole Pomeron with intercept $α(0)
