Description

We present the complete next-to-leading-order QCD analysis of the photon structure functions F2γ(x,Q2) and FLγ(x,Q2) for a real photon target. In particular, we study the heavy flavor content of the structure functions which is due to two different production mechanisms: namely, collisions of a virtual photon with a real photon and with a parton. We observe that the charm contributions are noticeable for F2γ(x,Q2) as well as FLγ(x,Q2) in the x region studied
