Abstract

Preliminary measurements of the inclusive jet and single photon production cross sections in p{bar p} collisions at {radical}{bar s} = 1.8 TeV by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron are reported. The inclusive jet cross sections in various pseudorapidity ranges covering {vert_bar}{eta}{vert_bar} < 3 are presented, along with comparisons to next-to-leading order QCD predictions. The single photon cross section in the central region ({vert_bar}{eta}{vert_bar} < 0.9) is also presented, as is a description of the conversion method used to determine the background contamination. The single photon cross section is compared to a recent next-to-leading logarithm QCD calculation.
