The authors study muon production in gamma-induced air showers, accounting for all major processes. For muon energies in the GeV region the photoproduction is by far the most important process, while the contribution of μ+μ- pair creation is not negligible for TeV muons. The total rate of muons in gamma showers is, however, very low.
