Abstract

Deep inelastic electron-photon scattering is studied using e⁺e^- data collected by the OPAL detector at centre-of-mass energies √s_ee ≈ M_z0. The photon structure function F^γ₂(x,Q²) is explored in a Q² range of 1.1 to 6.6 GeV² at lower x values than ever before. To probe this kinematic region events are selected with a beam electron scattered into one of the OPAL luminosity calorimeters at scattering angles between 27 and 55 mrad. A measurement is presented of the photon structure function F^γ₂(x,Q²) at 〈Q²〉 = 1.86 GeV² and 3.76 GeV² in five logarithmic x bins from 0.0025 to 0.2.

N1 - Funding Information: We particularly wish to thank the SL Division for the efficient operation of the LEP acceleratora t all energies and for their continuing close cooperation with our experimental group. We thank our colleagues from CEA, DAPNIA/SPP, CE-Saclay for their efforts over the years on the time-of-flight and trigger systemsw hich we continue to use. In addition to the support staff at our own institutions we are pleased to acknowledge the Departmento f Energy, USA, National Science Foundation, USA, Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council, UK, Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council, Canada, Israel Science Foundation, administeredb y the Israel Academy of Science and Humanities, Minerva Gesellschaft, Benoziyo Center for High Energy Physics, Japanese Ministry of Education, Science and Culture (the Monbusho) and a grant under the Monbusho International Science Research Program, German Israeli Bi-national Science Foundation (GIF), Bundesministerium fur Bildung, Wissenschaft, Forschung und Technologie, Germany, National Re-searchC ouncil of Canada, Hungarian Foundation for Scientific Research,O TKA T-016660, TO23793 and OTKA F-023259.

N2 - Deep inelastic electron-photon scattering is studied using e+e- data collected by the OPAL detector at centre-of-mass energies √see ≈ Mz0. The photon structure function Fγ2(x,Q2) is explored in a Q2 range of 1.1 to 6.6 GeV2 at lower x values than ever before. To probe this kinematic region events are selected with a beam electron scattered into one of the OPAL luminosity calorimeters at scattering angles between 27 and 55 mrad. A measurement is presented of the photon structure function Fγ2(x,Q2) at 〈Q2〉 = 1.86 GeV2 and 3.76 GeV2 in five logarithmic x bins from 0.0025 to 0.2.
