Direct lepton yields from vector--meson decay

Lepton yields from vector-meson decay for p/subT/ approximately-less-than 1 GeV/c are reasonably well determined by existing vector-meson production data and are small compared with l/π = 1 x 10-4. A class of reasonable extrapolations to higher p/subT/ gives yields that remain small, but a rise in l/π cannot be ruled out. Vector-meson polarization effects are discussed
