The invariant cross sections for direct photon production in hadron-hadron collisions are calculated for several initial energies (SPS, ISR, [Formula: see text], RHIC, Tevatron, LHC) including initial parton transverse momenta within the formalism of unintegrated parton distributions (UPDF). Kwieciński UPDFs provide very good description of all world data, especially at SPS and ISR energies. Inclusion of the QCD evolution effects and especially their effect on initial parton transverse momenta allowed to solve the long-standing problem of understanding the low energy and low transverse momentum data.

Measurements of the production of high-pT direct photons by a 515 GeV/c π- beam and 530 and 800 GeV/c proton beams in interactions with Be and H 2 targets are presented. The data span the kinematic ranges of 3.5 < pT < 12 GeV/c in transverse momentum and 1.5 units in rapidity. The inclusive direct-photon cross sections are compared with NLO pQCD calculations and expectations based on a phenomenological parton-kT model.

This work is in response to the stimulus received from our fairly successful attempt at understanding in the recent past the problem of direct photon production only in gold–gold and lead–lead collisions from the viewpoint of a non-standard approach. The same nonconventional formalism would, once again, be applied to analyze the vast array of measurements on the inclusive cross sections of direct photons produced in several purely nuclear or hadronuclear collisions at very high energies. Besides, some of the cross section ratios would also be calculated and be compared with data on them. All this reveals and indicates a modest agreement between the model-based calculations and the actual measurements. The authors would also endeavor here to adduce the reasons for the discrepancies, if any.
