Photon and Pion Production at High pT
Abstract
We present a study of high-pT photon and pion production in hadronic interactions, focusing on a comparison of the yields with expectations from next-to-leading order perturbative QCD (NLO pQCD). We examine the impact of phenomenological models of kT smearing (which approximate effects of additional soft-gluon emission) on absolute predictions for photon and pion production and their ratio.
