The authors present preliminary results of a measurement of inclusive photon-charm production in {anti p}p collisions. Using data collected by the CDF experiment during the 1992--1993 Tevatron collider run, the authors have measured the inclusive photon-muon cross section, and estimated the decay-in-flight and punchthrough backgrounds. They compare the measured photon-muon cross section and photon E{sub T} spectrum to Pythia predictions for the charm Compton contribution.

Data taken with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) during the 1992--1993 run of the Tevatron are used to measure the distribution of the center-of-mass angle between isolated prompt photons and the beam direction. The shape of the angular distribution for photon-jet events is found to differ from the predictions of NLO QCD.
