Mm. Block et al., MEASUREMENTS OF THE RISING PHOTON-PHOTON TOTAL CROSS-SECTION AT THE CERN LEP - ART. NO. 017503, Physical review. D. Particles and fields, 5801(1), 1998, pp. 7503
Using vector meson dominance we calculate the gamma gamma total cross
section from data on pp; p (p) over bar and gamma p total cross sectio
ns. Our result agrees with recent high energy measurements performed b
y the L3 experiment at the CERN LEP collider, not with the conflicting
preliminary data obtained by OPAL. [S0556-2821(98)03813-2].
