The transverse energy flow and relative rates of large rapidity gap events are compared in the two event samples. The observed similarity between $\\gamma p$ and $\\gamma^* p$ interactions can be understood in a picture where the photon develops as a hadronic object. The transverse energy density measured in the central region of the collision, at $\\eta^*=0$ in the $\\gamma^* p$ centre of mass frame, is compared with data from hadron-hadron interactions as function of the CMS energy of the collision.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "1995-08-15T15:36:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "deep inelastic scattering", "photoproduction interactions", "high energy electron-proton collider hera", "comparison", "large rapidity gap events" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 398259 } } }
