Measurements of open charm production in photon-photon collisions made with the AMY detector at TRISTAN are reported. Charmed hadrons were identified by detecting the high momentum muons or electrons from their semileptonic decays. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 275 pb −1 at an average center of mass energy of 58 GeV. Results are presented in the form of cross sections of inclusive leptons from charm for both muons and electrons. The measured cross section is 1.8 standard deviations higher than theoretical predictions based on the direct and photon-gluon fusion process, where the mass of charm quark is assumed to be 1.6 GeV.

The inclusive cross section for the production of charmed D<sup loc="post">∗±</sup> mesons in two-photon processes is measured with the AMY detector at the TRISTAN e<sup loc="post">+</sup>e<sup loc="post">−</sup> collider. D<sup loc="post">∗±</sup> mesons are identified from the distribution of charged-particle transverse momenta relative to the jet axis. A data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 176 pb<sup loc="post">−1</sup> at a center-of-mass energy of 58 GeV is used to determine a cross section σ(e<sup loc="post">+</sup>e<sup loc="post">−</sup> → e<sup loc="post">+</sup>e<sup loc="post">−</sup>D<sup loc="post">∗±</sup>X) = 270 ± 49(stat) ± 38(syst) pb. The results are compared with theoretical expectations based on the Vector Meson Dominance, direct quark-parton model, and resolved photon processes.

The ratio R of the total cross section for e+e− annihilation into hadrons to the lowest-order QED cross section for e+e−→μ+μ− has been measured for center-of-mass energies ranging from 50 to 61.4 GeV. If we allow for an overall shift of —4.9%, about 1.5 times our estimated normalization error, the results are consistent with the standard-model predictions.
