✦ Synopsis
We apply the Golec-Biernat Wüsthoff model in the calculation of vector meson photo-and electroproduction. Starting from very simple non-relativistic wave functions we show that the model provides a good description of J/Ψ cross sections in wide Q 2 and W ranges. For the light mesons one obtains the approximately correct W -dependence and ratio of longitudinal to transverse cross sections, although in this case the normalization, affected mainly by the wave function employed, is not in good agreement with data.

An earlier developed model for vector meson photoproduction, based on a dipole Pomeron exchange, is extended to electraproduction. Universality of the non linear Pomeron trajectory is tested by fitting the model to ZEUS and Hl data as well as to CDF data on @p elastic scattering.
The relations among differential cross section, polarization and helicity density matrix elements in yN -+ nN and TN --L VN processes are given for the photon-vector-meson analogy model. For example, the differential cross sections of yN + ?rN processes are given in terms of density matrix elements
