Diffractive open charm photoproduction in ultraperipheral lead-lead and proton-lead collisions at the LHC

Vadim Guzey, Gian Michele Innocenti, Anna M. Staśto +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…

Discovery of High-momentum Nucleon Correlations in Nuclei -- an Early History

Leonid Frankfurt, Mark Strikman

We summarize the reasons for using the light-cone mechanics of nuclei for description of high-energy nuclear processes and describe the steps, which have led to the discovery of hi…

Physics with high-luminosity proton-nucleus collisions at the LHC

D. d'Enterria, C. A. Flett, I. Grabowska-Bold +29

The physics case for the operation of high-luminosity proton-nucleus () collisions during Run 3 and 4 at the LHC is reviewed. The collection of (1-10 pb) of…

Nuclear suppression of coherent photoproduction in heavy-ion UPCs and leading twist nuclear shadowing

V. Guzey, M. Strikman

We determine the nuclear suppression factor , where with the mass and the photon-nucleon energy, for the cross secti…
