description <!--HTML-->We extract the value of the strong coupling constant <i>alpha<sub>s</sub></i> from a single-parameter pointlike fit to the photon structure function <i>F<sub>2</sub>(gamma)</i> at large <i>x</i> and <i>Q<sup>2</sup></i> and from a first five-parameter full (pointlike and hadronic) fit to the complete <i>F<sub>2</sub>(gamma)</i> data set taken at PETRA, TRISTAN, and LEP. In next-to-leading order and the <i>MSbar</i> renormalization and factorization schemes, we obtain <i>alpha<sub>s</sub> (m<sub>Z</sub>)</i> = 0.1183 ± 0.0050 (exp.) <sup>+0.0029</sup>/<sub>-0.0028</sub> (theor.) [pointlike] and <i>alpha<sub>s</sub> (m<sub>Z</sub>)</i> = 0.1198 ± 0.0028 (exp.) <sup>+0.0034</sup>/<sub>-0.0046</sub> (theor.) [pointlike and hadronic]. We demonstrate that the data taken at LEP have reduced the experimental error by about a factor of two, so that a competitive determination of <i>alpha<sub>s</sub></i> from <i>F<sub>2</sub>(gamma)</i> is now possible.<BR><BR><I>Organiser(s): Ariane FREY / EP Division</I><BR><BR><I>Note: Tea and coffee will be served at 15:00 hrs.
