Abstract: | The triple-differential dijet cross-section, , is measured with the H1 detector at HERA as a function of the photon virtuality , the fraction of the photon's momentum carried by the parton entering the hard scattering, , and the square of the mean transverse energy, , of the two highest jets. Jets are found using a longitudinal boost-invariant clustering algorithm in the center of mass frame. The measurements cover the ranges GeV in virtuality and in inelasticity y. The results are well described by leading order QCD models which include the effects of a resolved component to the virtual
photon. Models which treat the photon as point-like fail to describe the data. An effective leading order parton density for
the virtual photon is extracted as a function of the photon virtuality, the probing scale and the parton momentum fraction.
The and probing scale dependences of the parton density show characteristic features of photon structure, and a suppression of
this structure with increasing is seen.
