Measurement of the Charm Production Cross Section in gamma gamma Collisions at LEP
arXiv:hep-ex/0101025 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(01)00374-4
Abstract
Open charm production in gamma-gamma collisions is studied with data collected at e+e- centre-of-mass energies from 189 GeV to 202 GeV corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 410 pb-1. The charm cross section sigma(gamma gamma ---> c c~ X) is measured for the first time as a function of the two-photon centre-of-mass energy in the interval from 5 GeV to 70 GeV and is compared to NLO QCD calculations.
