Theoretical understanding of direct photon production

Theoretical understanding of direct photon production

We review some theoretical developments concerning higher order QCD corrections to the bremsstrahlung cross-section and the problems raised by the definition of isolated cross sections. Then we discuss recent phenomenological analyses of direct photon fixed target data.
