Nucleon resonances and the production of light vector mesons near thresholds

B. Kampfer, L. P. Kaptari, A. I. Titov

The production of the light vector mesons $V=\rho ,\omega ,\varphi$ in the reactions $\pi N\to VN$ and $NN\to VNN$ near threshold is studied. The subsequent electromagnetic decay $V \to γ^*…
