Light antinuclei, like antideuteron and antihelium-3, are ideal probes for new, exotic physics because their astrophysical backgrounds are suppressed at low energies. In order to exploit fully the inherent discovery potential of light…
The cross--section for two--photon events with (at least) two independent partonic scatters is estimated, for LEP energies as well as a 500 GeV ``photon collider". This results in events with (at least) four central (mini--)jets. Such…
