Unintegrated gluon distributions in a photon from the CCFM equation in the single loop approximation

The system of CCFM equations for unintegrated parton distributions in a photon is considered in the single loop approximation. We include quarks and non-singular parts of the splitting functions in the corresponding evolution equations. We solve the system of CCFM equations utilising the transverse coordinate representation which diagonalises these equations in the single loop approximation. The results for the unintegrated gluon distributions in a photon are presented and confronted with the approximate form expressing those distributions in terms of the integrated gluon and quark distributions and a suitably defined Sudakov-like form factor.
