Exclusive production observed at the CMS experiment

Abstract

Exclusive W${}^{+}$W${}^{-}$ pair production in photon-photon collisions during the pp runs at 7 and 8 TeV are observed and used to put constraints on the Anomalous Quartic Gauge Couplings. During the proton lead collisions in photon-induced vector meson production is observed via the decay of upsilon into two muons. The slope of the squared p${}_{\mathrm{T}}$ distribution is measured to determine the size of the production region.
