Abstract: | The contribution of resolved photons to the photoproduction cross section of direct photons is reexamined. Higher order,O(α 2 α s), QCD corrections to this contribution are calculated and turn out to be important at HERA energies. The observation of direct photons in the medium-p ⊥ range (p ⊥~5 GeV/c) should provide the opportunity to measure the gluon content of the photon. |
