Abstract
Photon-photon collisions are investigated in the framework of the two-component Dual Parton Model. The model is shown to agree well to hadron production data from hadron-hadron and photon-hadron collisions. The multiparticle production in hadron-hadron, photon-hadron and photon-photon collisions as predicted by the model is compared. Strong differences are only found as function of the transverse momentum variable. The hadron production in photon-photon collisions at present and future electron-positron colliders is studied using photon spectra according to the equivalent photon approximation, according to beamstrahlung and according to backscattered laser radiation.
