VALO1.0: New real-photon parton distributions with Monte Carlo uncertainties
Madhav Chithirasreemadam, Vadim Guzey, Felix Hekhorn +2
Performing a global QCD analysis of data on the photon structure function in scattering, we determine new leading order (LO) and next-to-leading (NLO) parton…

Diffractive open charm photoproduction in ultraperipheral lead-lead and proton-lead collisions at the LHC
Vadim Guzey, Gian Michele Innocenti, Anna M. StaÅto +1
We calculate diffractive photoproduction in ultraperipheral lead--lead (Pb--Pb) collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) within the recently developed GA--FONLL fr…

Probing fluctuating protons using forward neutrons in soft and hard inelastic proton-nucleus scattering
M. Alvioli, V. Guzey, M. Strikman
We present a model for the distribution of the number of forward neutrons emitted in soft (minimum bias) and hard inelastic proton-nucleus () scattering at the LHC. It is based…
