Previous studies of the kinematic coverage for measuring the photon structure function F_2^gamma at a future 500 GeV e^+e^- linear collider are updated using current estimates of luminosities and important detector parameters. The…
This review covers selected results from the LEP experiments on the structure of quasi-real and virtual photons. The topics discussed are the total hadronic cross-section for photon-photon scattering, hadron production, jet cross-sections,…
Recent developments in the field of Two Photon Physics at LEP, and their contribution to QCD are reviewed.
The e+e- -> e+e- hadrons reaction, where one of the two electrons is detected in a low polar-angle calorimeter, is analysed in order to measure the hadronic photon structure function F2gamma . The full high-energy and high-luminosity data…
The structure of the photon is studied in photon interactions at high energies using photons radiated by the electron and positron beams at LEP. The current status of these measurements is reviewed.
The energy available for gamma(*)gamma(*) physics at LEP2 is opening a new window on the study of diffractive phenomena, both non-perturbative and perturbative. We discuss some of the uncertainties and problems connected with the…
The alternative approach to QCD analysis of the photon structure function $F_2^{\gamma}$ is presented. It differs from the conventional one by the presence of the terms which in conventional approach appear in higher orders. We show that…
The structure of the photon is studied in high energy photon-proton interactions at HERA and photon-photon interactions at LEP. The status of these measurements is reviewed.
The LEP experiments measure the QED and QCD structure of the photon in deep-inelastic electron-photon scattering. The status of these measurements is discussed in this short review.
Deep inelastic electron-photon scattering is studied using e+e- data collected by the OPAL detector at centre-of-mass energies sqrt{s_ee} ~ M_{Z^0}. The photon structure function F_2^gamma(x,Q^2) is explored in a Q^2 range of 1.1 to 6.6…
We investigate the polarized photon structure functions $g_1^\gamma$ and $g_2^\gamma$ which can be studied in the future polarized version of ep or e$^+$e$^-$ colliders. The NLO QCD calculations of $g_1^\gamma$ and the possible twist-3…
The structure of the photon is probed in photon-photon interactions at LEP and in photon-proton interactions at HERA.
The electron and photon structure functions are compared. Advantages of the electron structure function are demonstrated. At very high momenta probabilistic (partonic) interpretation can be preserved despite strong $\gamma$-$Z$…
The present knowledge of the structure of the photon is presented based on results obtained by measurements of photon structure functions at e+e- collider. Results are presented both for the QED structure of the photon as well as for the…
Measurements of the QED structure of the photon based on the reaction ee --> ee \gamma(*)(P^2)\gamma*(Q^2) --> ee mumu are discussed. This review is an update of the discussion of the results on the QED structure of the photon presented in…
The possibility to measure diffraction dissociation in collisions of real and virtual photons at LEP2 is pointed out.
The novel possibilities of probing the photon structure and high energy limit of QCD at photon colliders are summarised. We discuss the photon structure function $F_2^{\gamma}(x,Q^2)$, the gluon distribution in the photon and the spin…
The OPAL experiment at LEP has performed a variety of measurements of photon-photon and electron-photon scattering at the electron-positron collider LEP to gain a deeper insight into the structure of the photon and its interactions. This…
The working group on two photon physics concentrated on three main subtopics: modelling the hadronic final state of deep inelastic scattering on a photon; unfolding the deep inelastic scattering data to obtain the photon structure function;…
Double tag events in two photon collisions are studied using the L3 detector at the LEP center of mass energies $\sqrt{s} \simeq 189-202$ GeV. The cross-section of $\gamma ^* \gamma ^*$ collisions is measured at an average photon virtuality…
