Abstract

We calculate the rapidity distribution and the total cross section of coherent and incoherent -production in the heavy ion ultraperipheral collisions (UPC) at GeV using the generalized vector dominance model(GVDM) and the Gribov- Glauber approach. We find the coherent cross section of -production mb compared to the mb recently reported by the STAR collaboration at RHIC. The predicted cross section inside the acceptance of the experiment, , agrees with the data. It is emphasized that measurements of the rapidity distribution will provide a much more stringent test of the model.
