Description

The future e+e- linear collider ILC/CLIC will allow for measurement of the photon structure functions in a wider range of kinematic variables x, Q^2 compared to the previous results of experiments at the LEP. The classical way to measure the photon structure functions is the study of e+e- → γγ → e+e- X process, where X is the leptonic or hadronic final state. For a study of the QED and hadronic photon structure functions the simulations of two-photon processes were performed at the ILC/CLIC centre-of-mass energy using Monte Carlo generators and the ILCSoft package. In this analysis information from the forward detectors have been used.
