Exclusive dilepton production via timelike Compton scattering in heavy ion collisions

G. M. Peccini, L. S. Moriggi, M. V. T. Machado

In the present work, $k_T$-factorization formalism is applied to compute the exclusive dilepton production by timelike Compton scattering (TCS) in $eA$, $pA$ and $AA$ collisions. T…
