Jets in photon-photon collisions: from TRISTAN to J/N-LC

Abstract

We study jet production in photon-photon reactions at the next-to-leading logarithm accuracy. Special emphasis is placed on the discussion of the theoretical uncertainties and on the role of the hadronic component of the photon structure function. We also discuss subtleties in the quasi-real photon spectrum when the photon is involved in a large transverse momentum reaction. The phenomenology at TRISTAN energies is discussed and predictions are made for LEP and a $1TeV$ \epem collider.
