Abstract
We present the complete next-to-leading-order QCD analysis of the photon structure functions and for a real photon target. In particular, we study the heavy flavor content of the structure functions which is due to two different production mechanisms: namely, collisions of a virtual photon with a real photon and with a parton. We observe that the charm contributions are noticeable for as well as in the x region studied.
