Abstract
In this contribution we analyse double vector meson production in photon -- hadron ($\gamma h$) interactions at $pp/pA/AA$ collisions
and present predictions for $\rho\rho$, $J/\Psi J/\Psi$ and $\rho J/\Psi$ production considering the double scattering mechanism. We estimate the total cross sections and compare our results with the predictions for double vector meson production in $\gamma \gamma$ interactions at hadronic colliders. Our results demonstrate that the $\rho\rho$ and $J/\Psi J/\Psi$ production in $PbPb$ collisions is dominated by the double scattering mechanism, while the two - photon mechanism dominates in $pp$ collisions. Moreover, our results indicate that the analysis of the $\rho J/\Psi$ production at LHC can be useful to constrain the double scattering mechanism.
