Abstract

The effect of

ρ - ω

interference on the leptonic decay of photoproduced neutral vector mesons is shown to be much larger than previously estimated. The experimental determination of the leptonic branching ratio of the

ρ

is shown to be sensitive to the amount of interference of the

ρ

and

ω
