Photoproduction of jets at HERA provides information on the partonic structure of the photon. We report on the latest dijet photoproduction results, for real photons and for photons at low virtualities, measured with the ZEUS detector.
The dijet cross section in photoproduction has been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 38.6 pb$^{-1}$. The events were required to have a virtuality of the incoming photon, $Q^2$, of less than 1…
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…
