Abstract
Furthermore, in pp collision the measurement of direct photon production in the range 10â¤pTâ¤60 GeV/c is reported. The analysis is performed on the EMCal-triggered data taken in 2011. The two main sources of background, namely photons from fragmentation processes and decay photons, have been subtracted from the inclusive photon spectrum by means of an isolation technique combined with the study of the transverse dispersion of electromagnetic showers. The measurement is in agreement both with NLO pQCD calculations and with those performed by the ATLAS and the CMS collaborations, extending the isolated photon spectrum investigated at LHC towards lower values of pT.
