Leptonic structure functions of the photon

Abstract

An analysis of the production of muon pairs in γγ collisions is presented. The leptonic structure functions of the photon, F2 and 2xF1, are extracted for Q2 < 1.7 GeV2. Their x dependences agree well with QED predictions. Corrections are required to eliminate radiative effects in the 2xF1 data.
