Description

The TPC/Two-Gamma Collaboration has measured the inclusive cross section for the production of charmed D*+- mesons in photon-photon collisions. The reaction utilized was e=e- -> e=e-D*=-X, with D*=- -> D0 π=-, D0 -> K-=π=-, and either zero or one outgoing e= detected. The result, sigma (e=e- -> e=e-D*=-X) 74+-26+-19 pb, is in agreement with the Quark Parton Model prediction for e=e- -> e=e-c c-bar, combined with a Lund model for the hadronization of the charmed quarks. (author). 12 refs.; 4 figs
