QCD at Photon Colliders ∗

چکیده
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 γ 2 (x, Q 2), the gluon distribution in the photon and the spin dependent structure function g γ 1 (x, Q 2) of the photon and emphasise advantages of the pho-ton colliders for measuring these quantities. The possibility of probing the QCD pomeron and odderon in γγ and eγ collisions is also described.

Jet Cross Sections in γγ-Scattering at ee Colliders in NLO QCD
Recent results from NLO QCD calculations for inclusive jet cross sections in γ∗γ-scattering at ee colliders, especially for LEP, are reported. The virtuality Q of the virtual photon is non-zero and can be unlimited large. The virtuality of the second photon is zero and the spectrum is calculated with the Weizsäcker-Williams approximation. Four components of the cross sections have to be disting...
متن کاملQuantum Chromodynamics at Colliders
QCD is the accepted (that is, the effective) theory of the strong interaction; studies at colliders are no longer designed to establish this. Such studies can now be divided into two categories. The first involves the identification of observables which can be both measured and predicted at the level of a few percent. Such studies parallel those of the electroweak sector over the past fifteen y...

متن کاملJet Production in Deep Inelastic Electron-Photon Scattering at e+e− Colliders in Next-to-Leading Order QCD
A complete next-to-leading order QCD calculation of deep inelastic electron-photon scattering including direct and resolved real photon components is presented. Soft and collinear singularities are extracted using the phase space slicing method. Application of the results for the prediction of singleand dijet cross sections at the LEP e+e− collider are presented, using the Snowmass jet definiti...
