Measurement of isolated prompt photon production in photon-photon collisions at
-209 GeV
For the first time at LEP the production of prompt photons is studied in the collisions of quasi-real photons using the OPAL data taken at centre-of-mass energies between 183 GeV and 209 GeV. The total inclusive production cross-section for isolated prompt photons in the kinematic range of transverse momentum
GeV and pseudorapidity
is determined to be
. Differential cross-sections are compared to the predictions of a next-to-leading-order (NLO) calculation.
