Beams: p- p+

Beam energies: (980.0, 980.0)GeV

Run details: - ppbar collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1960$ GeV. Requires gamma + jet (q,qbar,g) hard processes, which for Pythia 6 means MSEL=10 for with MSUB indices 14, 18, 29, 114, 115 enabled.

Measurement of differential cross section for inclusive production of isolated photons in p pbar collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.96$ TeV with the Ddetector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. The photons span transverse momenta 23–300 GeV and have pseudorapidity |η| < 0.9. Isolated direct photons are probes of pQCD via the annihilation (qq̄− > γg) and quark-gluon Compton scattering (qg− > γq) processes, the latter of which is also sensitive to the gluon PDF. The initial state radiation / resummation formalisms are sensitive to the resulting photon pT spectrum
