see paper for full list of authors - 547 authors, 7 pages, 4 figures. Submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett. Plain text data tables for the points plotted in figures for this and previous PHENIX publications are (or will be) publicly available at www.phenix.bnl.gov/papers.html ; The differential cross section for the production of direct photons in p+p collisions at √s=200 GeV at midrapidity was measured in the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. Inclusive direct photons were measured in the transverse momentum range from 5.5-25 GeV/c, extending the range beyond previous measurements. Event structure was studied with an isolation criterion. Next-to-leading-order perturbative-quantum-chromodynamics calculations give a good description of the spectrum. When the cross section is expressed versus xT, the PHENIX data are seen to be in agreement with measurements from other experiments at different center-of-mass energies.
