Production of one or two vector mesons in peripheral high-energy   collisions of heavy ions
  We study the production of spin-one mesons in high-energy heavy-ion collisions with peripheral kinematics in the framework of QED. The cross sections of the production of a single vector meson and of two different ones are presented. The explicit dependence on the virtuality of the intermediate vector meson is obtained within a quark model. The effect of reggeization of the intermediate vector meson state in the case of the production of two vector mesons is taken into account.
