Abstract:
Properties of the hadronic final state in photoproduction events with large transverse energy are studied at the electron-proton collider HERA. Distributions of the transverse energy, jets and underlying event energy are compared to pp\overline{p}p data and QCD calculations. The comparisons show that the γp\gamma p events can be consistently described by QCD models including -- in addition to the primary hard scattering process -- interactions between the two beam remnants. The differential jet cross sections dσ/dET jetd\sigma/dE_T~{jet} and dσ/dη jetd\sigma/d\eta~{jet} are measured.
