Double scattering production of two $\rho^0$ mesons in UPC

Nuclear Theory 2015-09-25 v1 High Energy Physics - Phenomenology

Abstract

We review our recent results for double-scattering mechanism in the exclusive AAAAρ0ρ0AA \to AA \rho^0\rho^0 reaction in ultrarelativistic ultraperipheral heavy ion collisions. The cross section for single and double-ρ0\rho^0 production is calculated in the impact parameter space equivalent photon approximation. We compare the results of our calculation with the STAR and ALICE Collaboration results on one ρ0(770)\rho^0(770) meson and four-charged-pion production.
