Investigating the central diffractive f0(980) and f2(1270) meson production at the LHC

Abstract

The central diffractive production of mesons f0(980) and f2(1270) at the energy of CERN-LHC experiment on proton-proton collisions is investigated. The processes initiated by quasi-real photon-photon collisions and by central diffraction processes are considered. The role played by the photon-Odderon production channel is also studied. The cross sections for these distinct production channels are compared and analyzed.
