Abstract
In this article, we investigate the contribution of the high twist Feynman diagrams to the large-pT single pseudoscalar and vector mesons inclusive production cross section in two-photon collisions and we present the general formulae for the high and leading twist differential cross sections. The pion wave function where two non-trivial Gegenbauer coefficients a2 and a4 have been extracted from the CLEO data, Braun–Filyanov pion wave function, the asymptotic and the Chernyak–Zhitnitsky wave functions are all used in the calculations. For ρ-meson we used the Ball–Braun wave function. The results of the calculations reveal that the high twist cross sections, the ratio R, the dependence transverse momentum pT and the rapidity y of meson in the Φ CLEO (x, Q2) wave function case is very close to the Φ asy (x) asymptotic wave function case. It is shown that the high twist contribution to the cross section depends on the choice of the meson wave functions.
