In this contribution we discuss recent measurements by the LEP experiments on photon structure functions.
Electromagnetic structure functions for electron-proton scattering are used as a test of the QCD improved parton model at low and moderate Q. Two parameterizations which work well in ep scattering at low Q are used to evaluate the inelastic…
