We demonstrate that a future high-energy electron-proton collider like THERA could largely extend the current HERA program in jet photoproduction of testing QCD and determining the partonic structure of the proton and the photon. Depending…

Measurements of di-jet production at HERA provide an important test of NLO QCD calculations. It is also a source of information about partonic content of the photon, complementary to the measurements in e+e- experiments. In this article we…
Recent NLO calculations for the photoproduction of one and two jets at HERA are compared to data from H1 and ZEUS. We discuss the physics potential of these measurements for constraining the photon structure, especially the quark density at…
