Deep inelastic Compton scattering and large-p T pion photoproduction in QCD hard collision model

Inclusive photon(pion) production at large-p _T in γp collisions is studied in the framework of QCD perturbation theory, taking into account the effects due to parton transverse momenta. The contributions from various components of photons are equally important at relatively smallp _T (e.g.,p _T?4 Ge V/c at \(\sqrt s = 17GeV\) ). At largep _T, however, the contributions from the subprocesses with direct photon coupling are most important; quark Compton scattering is the dominant subprocess in inelastic Compton scattering.
