Abstract
In a transport model that combines initial state interactions of the photon with final state interactions of the produced particles we present a calcu lation of inclusive photoproduction of mesons in nuclei in the energy range from 1 to 7 GeV. We give predictions for the photoproduction cross section s of pions, etas, kaons, antikaons, and pi(+) pi(-) invariant mass spectra in C-12 and Pb-208. The effects of nuclear shadowing and final state intera ction of the produced particles are discussed in detail.
