Ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions with the CMS experiment
Ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) of heavy ions involve long range electromagnetic interactions at impact parameters larger than sum of their radii where hadronic interaction is largely suppressed and the exchanged photon materializes into qq(bar) bound state after interacting with the gluonic field...
