Abstract
Qmegas and phis were observed in di-muon events. Differential cross sections with respect to perpendicular momentum and Feynman-X for both meson types and both beam types are compared. When a simple parton fusion model is used to describe the Feymnan-X distributions the omega appears to be produced predominantly by gluon fusion.
