Description
This paper reports a complete analysis of data taken at DCI to measure lepton and pion pair production close to the threshold in two-photon processes: e+e- -> e+e-(e+e-, μ+μ-, π+π-). Preliminary results have been previously published including one-half of the total statistics. Final results presented here are in good agreement with QED for lepton pair production. The measured cross section for pion production is twice as large as that expected from Born terms only - a two standard deviation effect. (orig.)
