Abstract: | We review high-energy scattering processes that are sensitive to the hadronic structure of the photon, describing theoretical
predictions as well as recent experimental results. These processes include deep-inelastic electron-photon scattering ate

e
− colliders; and the production of jets, heavy quarks and isolated photons in the collision of real photons ate
+
e
− colliders, as well as in photon-photon collisions atep colliders. We also comment on minijet based calculations of totalγp andγγ cross-sections, and discuss the possibility that future lineare
+
e
− colliders might produce very large photon fluxes due to the beamstrahlung phenomenon; in the most extreme cases, we predict
more than one hadronicγγ event to occur at every bunch crossing. |
