Abstract
New data on ϕ -meson production in pp collisions have been obtained at the ANKE facility of COSY-Jülich. These data will provide the energy dependence of the total cross section down to an excess energy of 19 MeV above threshold. In combination with the existing SPES-III and COSY-TOF results on ω -meson production the ϕ / ω production ratio at this low excess energy will be extracted. As an exciting new aspect an enhancement in the invariant ϕp mass spectrum is observed at a mass around 1.965 GeV / c 2 .
