Heavy meson production at a low-energy photon collider

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

A low-energy γγ\gamma\gamma collider has been discussed in the context of a testbed for a γγ\gamma\gamma interaction region at the Next Linear Collider (NLC). We consider the production of heavy mesons at such a testbed using Compton-backscattered photons and demonstrate that their production rivals or exceeds those by BELLE, BABAR or LEP where they are produced indirectly via virtual γγ\gamma\gamma luminosities.
