Abstract

Cross sections for inclusive direct photon production in -p, +p, and pp collisions at 300 GeV/c are measured at transverse momenta pT up to 7 GeV/c (xT=0.6). For -pX also the rapidity distribution is presented. The cross-section ratio (-pX)/(+pX) is found to be 1 at pT=4 GeV/c and rises with increasing pT. This observation signals the occurrence of valence-quarkantiquark annihilation. The results are in good agreement with QCD predictions.
