We have measured the total and differential cross-sections for coherently photoproduced ϱ, ω and ϱ′ on deuterium at 7.5 GeV. Using VDM relations, we have obtained γ ω 2 / γ ϱ 2 = 7.1 ± 1.5, σ T ( ϱ d) = (54 ± 2) mb and σ T ( ω d) = (56 ± 5) mb. Assuming the amplitude for ϱ′ production via an intermediate ϱ 0 to be small and that the amplitudes for ϱp and ϱ′p elastic scattering are comparable, we found γ ϱ ′ 2 / γ ϱ 2 = 6.0 ± 1.2 and σ T ( ϱ ′d) = (47 ± 6) mb.
