Abstract
For the first time, multihadronic production from single tagged gamma gamma collisions has been studied, where one of the scattered leptons was tagged at very low virtual photon absolute mass squared ([Q(2)] = 0.06 (GeV/c(2))(2)). Data collected during 1991 and 1992 in the DELPHI experiment at LEP are shown to agree well with predictions which incl uded the non-perturbative vector meson dominance model in which the in teracting photons are assumed to have converted into a vector meson (r ho, omega or pi), a quark-parton model which describes direct photon i nteractions and a QCD-based model which considers the photon to have q uark and gluon structure functions. Five different parametrizations of these structure functions were used and the predictions compared with the data. This study confirms recent results from no-tag experiments in requiring a QCD-based component to successfully describe the data, indicating that the photon has a significant partonic content.
