Theoretical model of the phi meson photoproduction amplitudes

Abstract

P-wave amplitudes for elastic K+ K- photoproduction on hydrogen near the phi(1020) resonance have been derived in an analytical form and a partial wave decomposition of the amplitudes has been performed. We discuss the high energy limit of the resulting amplitudes and compare two types of pomeron coupling to nucleons.
