Abstract
The production cross section of inclusive isolated photons has been measured
by the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC in pp collisions at centre-of-momentum
energy of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV collected during the LHC Run 2 data-taking period.
The measurement is performed by combining the measurements of the
electromagnetic calorimeter EMCal and the central tracking detectors ITS and
TPC, covering a pseudorapidity range of $|\eta^{\gamma}|<0.67$ and a transverse
momentum range of $7
