# Photon-jet correlations in Deep-Inelastic Scattering

## TL;DR

This paper investigates photon-jet correlations in deep-inelastic scattering at NLO in QCD, providing detailed correlation functions to better understand the reaction dynamics, building on previous inclusive distribution studies.

## Contribution

It introduces the calculation of correlation functions in photon-jet production in DIS at NLO, offering a more detailed analysis of the reaction dynamics than prior inclusive studies.

## Key findings

- Good agreement with ZEUS data for inclusive distributions
- Correlation functions reveal detailed reaction dynamics
- Enhanced understanding of photon-jet production mechanisms

## Abstract

The reaction e + p ---> photon + jet + X is studied in QCD at the next-to-leading order. Previous studies on inclusive distributions showed a good agreement with ZEUS data. To obtain a finer understanding of the dynamics of the reaction, several correlation functions are evaluated for ZEUS kinematics.
