Abstract
In this letter we study the photoproduction of scalar mesons in the intermediate energies considering distinct mixing scenarios in the description of meson physical states. The differential and integrated total cross section are computed for the cases of the mesons a_0(980), f_0(1500) and f_0(1710) focusing the GlueX energy regime with photon energy equal to 9 GeV. Our results indicate that light-quark scalar meson photoproduction is well suited for studying hybrid mesons structure.
