We present a calculation of the two-photon and two-gluon widths for the equal mass quarkonium states $^1S_0$, $^3P_0$ and $^3P_2$ of the charmonium and upsilon systems. The approach taken is based on using the full relativistic…
The ALICE Collaboration at the LHC has measured the J/$\psi$ and $\psi^{'}$ photoproduction at mid-rapidity in ultra-peripheral Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}=2.76$ TeV. The charmonium is identified via its leptonic decay for events…
