Threshold scans in central diffraction at the LHC

Description

We propose a new set of measurements which can be performed at the LHC using roman pot detectors. The method exploits excitation curves in central di.ractive pair production, and is illustrated using the examples of the W boson and top quark mass measurements. Further applications are mentioned
