Abstract
The energy dependence of the photon–proton total cross section, σtotγp, was determined from e+p scattering data collected with the ZEUS detector at HERA at three values of the center-of-mass energy, W, of the γp system in the range 194<W<296 GeV. This is the first determination of the W dependence of σtotγp from a single experiment at high W. Parameterizing σtotγp∝W2ϵ, ϵ=0.111±0.009(stat.)±0.036(syst.) was obtained.
