Description

We calculated the exclusive f1(1285) meson photoproduction cross section at an energy of a few GeV within the Regge approach. The calculation shows that the cross section is sizable, being in the range of 100 nb, and much larger than the expected cross section of the η(1295) meson photoproduction at the same energy. These two facts make it possible to use this reaction to study the poor known properties of the f1(1285) meson in the JLab kinematics.
