Abstract

Measurements of prompt photon production in proton-proton collisions provide a testing ground of perturbative QCD with a hard colourless probe. ATLAS has made public very recently the first measurements of inclusive photon production in the new kinematic regime opened up by the 13 TeV collisions with an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb−1. The inclusive photon cross section is measured as a function of the photon transverse energy above 125 GeV in different regions of photon pseudorapidity. Next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD and Monte Carlo event generator predictions are compared to the measured cross sections and provide an adequate description of the data.
