Measurement of the Central Exclusive Production of pion pairs using tagged forward protons at the STAR detector at RHIC

We present preliminary measurement of the invariant mass spectrum of the two oppositely charged pions produced in the process pp → pπ+π−p (Central Exclusive Production), obtained with the STAR detector at RHIC at √(s) = 200 GeV. The Roman Pots were used to tag forward protons and the invariant mass...
