Elastic light-by-light scattering, $\gamma\gamma\to\gamma\gamma$, is open to study at the Large Hadron Collider thanks to the large quasi-real photon fluxes available in electromagnetic interactions of protons (p) and lead (Pb) ions. The…
We review recent theoretical developments and experimental measurements of azimuthal modulations in photon-induced processes, covering both ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions (UPCs) and $e^+e^-$ colliders. The azimuthal asymmetries…
We discuss the physics of large impact parameter interactions at the LHC: ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs). The dominant processes in UPCs are photon-nucleon (nucleus) interactions. The current LHC detector configurations can explore small…
As predicted by theory and confirmed by measurements, one, two or three neutrons are emitted frequently in ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) of heavy relativistic nuclei, in particular, $^{208}$Pb. The exchange of low-energy…
Azimuthal modulations in lepton and heavy-quark pair production in ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) of highly charged ions are investigated. The modulations in the azimuthal angles of the sum and difference of the transverse momenta of the…
The light-by-light (LBL) scattering with initial polarized Compton backscattered photons at the CLIC, induced by axion-like particles (ALPs), is investigated. The total cross sections are calculated, assuming CP-even coupling of the…
Ultra-relativistic heavy ions generate strong electromagnetic fields which offer the possibility to study $\gamma$-nucleus and $\gamma$-proton interactions at the LHC in the so called ultra-peripheral collisions (UPC). Here we report ALICE…
I present possible future studies of light-by-light scattering using FoCal@ALICE and ALICE 3 detectors. Different mechanisms are discussed. The PbPb$\to$PbPb$\gamma \gamma$ cross section is calculated within equivalent photon approximation…
This paper describes a measurement of light-by-light scattering based on Pb+Pb collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment during Run 2 of the LHC. The study uses $2.2$ nb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected in 2015 and 2018 at…
The LHC is not only the highest energy collider for protons and heavy ions, but also for photon photon and photon hadron ($\gamma$p and $\gamma$Pb) interactions. This is because the protons and ions accelerated in the LHC carry an…
We study the discovery potential of axion-like particles (ALP), pseudo-scalars weakly coupled to Standard Model fields, at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Our focus is on ALPs coupled to the electromagnetic field, which would induce…
Moving highly-charged ions carry strong electromagnetic fields that act as a field of photons. In collisions at large impact parameters, hadronic interactions are not possible, and the ions interact through photon-ion and photon-photon…
We present full (3+1)D dynamical simulations to study collective behavior in ultra-peripheral nucleus-nucleus collisions (UPC) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with the 3DGlauber+MUSIC+UrQMD framework. By extrapolating from asymmetric…
We model effects of color fluctuations (CFs) in the light-cone photon wave function and for the first time make predictions for the distribution over the number of wounded nucleons $\nu$ in the inelastic photon-nucleus scattering. We show…
We discuss diphoton semi(exclusive) production in ultraperipheral lead-lead collisions at energy of $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 5.5 TeV (LHC) and in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s_{pp}}$ = 7 TeV (LHC) and $\sqrt{s_{pp}}$ = 100 TeV (FCC). The…
Possibility of PbPb$\to$PbPb$\gamma\gamma$ measurement at smaller (< 5 GeV) diphoton invariant mass will be presented. Analysis focuses only on ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions. This estimate shows that the $\gamma \gamma \to \gamma…
The process of elastic scattering of photons (scattering of light by light) has attracted much attention in recent years. It goes through a loop where all the charged particles contribute to the cross section. To date, this $\gamma\gamma…
We discuss possible future studies of photon-photon (light-by-light) scattering using a planned FoCal and ALICE 3 detectors. We include different mechanisms of $\gamma\gamma\to\gamma\gamma$ scattering, such as double-hadronic photon…
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…
Ultra-peripheral collisions (UPC) are events characterised by large impact parameters between the two projectiles, larger than the sum of their radii. In UPCs, the protons and ions accelerated by the LHC do not interact via the strong…
