Abstract

The yield of wide angle bremsstrahlung photons produced by 120 GeV muons incident on a liquid hydrogen target has been measured in the kinematic range 0.3<y<0.8 and 0.02<x<0.15. These measurements have been compared with the predictions of the standard treatment of radiative corrections and no inconsistencies found in this kinematic range.
