Photon–jet correlations in deep-inelastic scattering

Abstract

Abstract The reaction $$e + p \rightarrow \gamma + \mathrm{jet} + X$$ e + p → γ + jet + X is studied in QCD at the next-to-leading order. Previous studies on inclusive distributions showed good agreement with ZEUS data. To obtain a finer understanding of the dynamics of the reaction, several correlation functions are evaluated for ZEUS kinematics.
