Abstract

The exclusive photoproduction reaction γp→ϒ(1 <i>S</i>)<i>p</i> has been studied with the ZEUS detector in <i>ep</i> collisions at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 468 pb<sup>−1</sup>. The measurement covers the kinematic range60<W<220 GeV and Q<sup>2</sup><1 GeV<sup>2</sup>, where <i>W</i> is the photon–proton centre-of-mass energy and Q<sup>2</sup> is the photon virtuality. The exponential slope, <i>b</i>, of the <i>t</i> dependence of the cross section, where <i>t</i> is the squared four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex, has been measured, yielding b = 4.3{+2.0 =1.3}(stat.){+0.5 -0.6}(syst.) GeV<sup>-2</sup>. This constitutes the first measurement of the <i>t</i> dependence of the γp→ϒ(1 <i>S</i>)<i>p</i> cross section.
