QCD radiative corrections to γ*γ* hadrons
Abstract
We compute the order- corrections to the total cross section and to jet rates for the process + hadrons, where the hadrons are produced through crossed-channel quark exchange in the hard scattering of two off-shell photons originating from the incoming leptons. We use a next-to-leading order general-purpose partonic Monte Carlo event generator that allows the computation of a rate differential in the produced leptons and hadrons. We compare our results with the available experimental data for + hadrons at LEP2.
