Photoproduction of Heavy Vector Mesons at the LHC
Joakim Nystrand
The strong electromagnetic fields associated with high energy protons and nuclei may lead to exclusive photoproduction of vector mesons in proton-proton and nucleus-nucleus collisi…
Photoproduction of and in pp and Collisions
Spencer Klein, Joakim Nystrand
Exclusive vector meson photoproduction, and occurs with significant rates at hadron colliders. The reaction can be used to study the gluon distribu…
Coherent Interactions in Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions
Joakim Nystrand
At the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory and at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, particles will be produced in coherent and diffracti…
Two-Photon Physics in Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions at RHIC
Joakim Nystrand, Spencer Klein, the STAR Collaboration
Ultra-relativistic heavy-ions carry strong electromagnetic and nuclear fields. Interactions between these fields in peripheral nucleus-nucleus collisions can probe many interesting…
