Phys. Rev. D 49, 3209–3227 (1994)Hadron production in γγ collisions as a background for e+e- linear collidersReceived 26 April 1993; published in the issue dated 1 April 1994 Drees and Godbole have proposed that, at the iteraction point of an e+e- linear collider, one expects a high rate of hadron production by γγ collisions, providing an additional background to studies in e+e- annihilation. Using a simplified model of the γγ cross section with soft and jetlike components, we estimate the expected rate of these hadronic events for a variety of realistic machine designs. © 1994 The American Physical Society URL:
