Description

We study the production of mesons in nucleon-nucleon reactions at center-of-mass momenta of a few GeV using an $N_f=2$ linear sigma model, extended by including the $N_f=2$ multiplets of (pseudo-) scalar and (axial-) vector mesons and a doublet of the nucleon together with its chiral partner (the $N^*(1535)$ or $N^*(1650)$ resonance). Cross sections for the production of $\pi-$, $\eta-$, $\rho-$ and $\omega-$mesons will be presented. The results are compared to experimental data.
