Abstract
The structure of spin-0 meson photoproduction from spin-1 /2 particles is given in several useful optimal frames Polarization experiments for this reaction are then discussed from the point of view of a) determining the reaction amplitudes, b) studying one-particle-exchange mechanisms, c) detecting patterns in the amplitude structure. The existing data are then analyzed in terms of the above considerations, and the need for future experiments is specified.
