Abstract

We present two mechanisms which can compete with constituent interchange in the exclusive production at wide angle of heavy mesons in photon-photon collisions. We show that they have the same energy behaviour as constituent interchange, and that their amplitudes are free from large logarithms. We exploit this to calculate the double-scattering diagrams numerically. We find that while constituent interchange dominates at 90°, double scattering becomes dominant for angles less than about 45°.
