Abstract
Exclusive ρ+ρ- production in two-photon collisions involving a single highly-virtual photon is studied for the first time with data collected by the L3 experiment at LEP at centre-of-mass energies 89 < √ s < 209 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 854.7 pb-1. The cross section of the process γγ*→ρ+ρ- is determined as a function of the photon virtuality, Q2, and the two-photon centre-of-mass energy, Wγγ, in the kinematic region: 1.2< Q2< 30 GeV2 and 1.1 < Wγγ<3GeV.The ρ+ρ- production cross section is found to be of the same magnitude as the cross section of the process γγ*→ρ0ρ0, measured in the same kinematic region by L3, and to have similar Wγγand Q2 dependences.
