Hadronic interactions of two quasi-real photons have been studied extensively both during the LEP1 and the LEP2 data taking periods. The higher energies available at LEP2 in particular opened regions of phase space where hadronic processes…

In the framework of the constituent quark model the exclusive pair production of the charmed mesons in the photon-photon interaction is calculated. The comparison of these predictions with the ones of the heavy quark effective theory is…
This talk reviews the latest measurements of the proton, Pomeron and photon structure functions. These measurements, especially at low $x$ and/or low $Q^2$ lead to new insight into the picture of hadronic interactions.
Two-photon exchange contributions to elastic electron-scattering are reviewed. The apparent discrepancy in the extraction of elastic nucleon form factors between unpolarized Rosenbluth and polarization transfer experiments is discussed, as…
We have developed a phenomenological approach which describes very well the pi0, eta and eta-prime meson production in the two-photon interactions. The simultaneous description of the pi0, eta and eta-prime meson two-photon form factors is…

We discuss two-photon and hadronic production of $B_c$ mesons in nonrelativistic bound state approximation and to lowest order in the coupling constants $\alpha$ and $\alpha_s$. It is shown that in photon-photon collisions, heavy quark…
