Abstract
A measurement of the cross section for production of single, isolated photons is reported for transverse energies in the range of 10-125 GeV for two regions of pseudorapidity, \eta\ < 0.9 and 1.6 < \eta\ < 2.5. The data represent 12.9 pb(-1) of integrated luminosity accumulated i n <(p)over bar p> collisions at root s = 1.8 TeV and recorded with the DO detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The background, predom inantly from jets which fragment to neutral mesons, is estimated using the longitudinal shower shape in the calorimeter. In both pseudorapid ity regions the cross section is found to agree with the next-to-leadi ng order QCD prediction for 30 less than or similar to E(T)(gamma) les s than or similar to 80 GeV.
