Abstract

Radiative corrections to bremsstrahlung and pair-production cross sections have been detected experimentally by measuring the thin-target bremsstrahlung spectrum of 5-GeV electrons with a pair spectrometer. Deviations of up to 5% from lowest-order calculations have been observed and found to agree with predictions for radiative corrections given by Mork and Olsen.
