Photoproduction and detection of decays in ultra-peripheral collisions and at an electron-ion collider
Neha Devi, Minjung Kim, Spencer R. Klein +1
Vector meson photoproduction is an important probe of nuclear structure. Light vector mesons are most sensitive to low structure, as long as they are not too light for perturba…
Report on Progress in Physics: Observation of the Breit-Wheeler Process and Vacuum Birefringence in Heavy-Ion Collisions
James Daniel Brandenburg, Janet Seger, Zhangbu Xu +1
This Report reviews the effort over several decades to observe the linear Breit-Wheeler process () and vacuum birefringence in high-energy particle and heavy-…
Pattern of Global Spin Alignment of and mesons in Heavy-Ion Collisions
STAR Collaboration, M. S. Abdallah, B. E. Aboona +379
Notwithstanding decades of progress since Yukawa first developed a description of the force between nucleons in terms of meson exchange, a full understanding of the strong interact…
New opportunities at the photon energy frontier
Jaroslav Adam, Christine Aidala, Aaron Angerami +72
Ultra-peripheral collisions (UPCs) involving heavy ions and protons are the energy frontier for photon-mediated interactions. UPC photons can be used for many purposes, including p…
STARlight: A Monte Carlo simulation program for ultra-peripheral collisions of relativistic ions
Spencer R. Klein, Joakim Nystrand, Janet Seger +2
Ultra-peripheral collisions (UPCs) have been a significant source of study at RHIC and the LHC. In these collisions, the two colliding nuclei interact electromagnetically, via two-…
