Breakdown of Conventional Factorization for Isolated Photon Cross Sections

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

Using e+eγ+Xe^+e^-\rightarrow\gamma + X as an example, we show that the conventional factorization theorem in perturbative quantum chromodynamics breaks down for isolated photon cross sections in a well defined part of phase space. Implications and physical consequences are discussed.
