DATA REVIEW

A compilation of all experimental cross sections, published since 1994, on two-photon initiated reactions is presented. Data published before this date are contained in our previous review [1]. Processes with both quasi-real and virtual photons coming from e+e- collisions are encoded. The data encompass hadronic and leptonic structure functions, inclusive and exclusive hadronic cross sections, inclusive jet cross sections, heavy quark cross sections and total hadronic cross sections. Where appropriate comparisons with theoretical curves are shown to aid the reader in comparing the different data sets. This compilation was completed in September 2001. All the data in this review and the previous one, together with data on a wide variety of other reactions, can be found in and retrieved from the Durham HEP Databases on the World-Wide-Web (http://durpdg.dur.ac.uk/HEPDATA).
