We discuss diphoton semi(exclusive) production in ultraperipheral $PbPb$ collisions at energy of $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$ 5.5 TeV (LHC). The nuclear calculations are based on equivalent photon approximation in the impact parameter space. The cross…
Photon-neutrino interactions arise quite naturally in noncommutative field theories. Such couplings are absent in ordinary field theory and imply experimental lower bounds on the energy scale Lambda_NC ~ 1/|theta|^2 of noncommutativity.…

We evaluate the photon spectra from the reaction $\pi\rho\ra \pi\gamma$ for the exchange of $\pi$, $\rho$, $\omega$, $\phi$ and $a_1$ as intermediary mesons. It is found that the contributions from the intermediary $a_1$ is more than any…
