Abstract
A search for high mass photon pairs from the processes e(+)e(-) --> l( +)l(-)gamma gamma, e(+)e(-) --> <q(q)over bar gamma gamma> and e(+)e(- ) --> nu nu gamma gamma with the DELPHI detector at LEP I is reported. From a data sample containing 3.5 million hadronic Z(0) decays, colle cted by DELPHI during the years 1991 to 1994, 79 events with two charg ed leptons and two isolated photons were selected with photon pair mas ses above 10 GeV/c(2), where 76 +/- 6 events were predicted from stand ard sources. In the same data sample, no <nu(nu)over bar gamma gamma> candidates were found and no accumulation of events was visible for ga mma gamma masses above 10 GeVlc2 in the q<q(q)over bar gamma gamma> ch annel. Upper limits at 95% confidence level on the Z(0) branching rati os for the three different channels were extracted from the data. In t he mass region m(gamma gamma) > 30 CeV/c(2) the limits obtained are be tween 3x10(-6) and 4x10(-6).
