Coherent photon-photon interactions in very peripheral relativistic heavy ion collisions

Gerhard Baur

Heavy ions at high velocities provide very strong electromagnetic fields for a very short time. The main characteristics of ultraperipheral relativistic heavy ion collisions are re…

Ultraperipheral Collisions at RHIC and LHC

Gerhard Baur

A brief introduction to the physics of ultraperipheral collisions at collider energies is given. Photon-hadron (proton/ nucleus) and photon-photon interactions can be studied in a…

The Physics of Ultraperipheral Collisions at the LHC

A. J. Baltz, G. Baur, D. d'Enterria +20

We discuss the physics of large impact parameter interactions at the LHC: ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs). The dominant processes in UPCs are photon-nucleon (nucleus) interaction…

Electron-Positron Pair Production in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

Gerhard Baur, Kai Hencken, Dirk Trautmann

In recent years, a large number of papers have appeared that dealt with $\EPEM$ pair production in heavy ion collisions at high energies. To a large extent these studies were motiv…

Photoproduction at collider energies: from RHIC and HERA to the LHC

A. Baltz, G. Baur, S. J. Brodsky +26

We present the mini-proceedings of the workshop on ``Photoproduction at collider energies: from RHIC and HERA to the LHC'' held at the European Centre for Theoretical Studies in Nu…
