Abstract
The inclusive production of ω and ϕ mesons is studied in the backward region of the interaction of 12 GeV protons with polyethylene, carbon, and copper targets. The mesons are measured in decay channels. The production cross sections of the mesons are presented as functions of rapidity and transverse momentum . The nuclear mass number dependences ( dependences) are found to be for ω mesons and for ϕ mesons in the region of and GeV/.
