Description
The equivalent photon approximation is used to calculate fiducial cross sections for dimuon production in ultraperipheral proton–proton and lead–lead collisions. Analytic formulas taking experimental cuts into account are derived. The results are compared with the measurements reported by the ATLAS collaboration. (physics of our days)
