How well does QCD work for photon-photon collisions?
Thorsten Wengler
TL;DR
This paper evaluates the effectiveness of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) in explaining photon-photon collision phenomena using recent LEP experimental data on di-jet production, hadron spectra, and heavy quark production.
Contribution
It provides an assessment of QCD's predictive power for photon-photon collisions based on recent experimental results.
Findings
QCD describes di-jet production reasonably well
Light hadron spectra show partial agreement with QCD predictions
Heavy quark production measurements test QCD's accuracy
Abstract
The performance of QCD in describing hadronic photon-photon collisions is investigated in the light of recent measurements from LEP on di-jet production, light hadron transverse momentum spectra, and heavy quark production.
