Measurement of the inclusive cross section of jets in γγ interactions at TRISTAN

We have investigated the properties of jet production in almost real γγ collisions at √s=58 GeV with the TOPAZ detector at the TRISTAN e+e− collider. The data were analyzed with a jet-clustering method based on a cone algorithm. The jet rate shows evidence for a hard scattering effect of the hadronic constituents of a photon (resolved photon processes). We have also observed a substantial energy flow in the small-angle region, which is additional evidence for resolved photon processes. We present the transverse momentum dependence of the inclusive jet and two-jet cross sections and compare them with different model predictions.
