Exclusive photoproduction of Upsilon in pPb collisions with the CMS

  • 1. Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai (India)

Description

Relativistic heavy ions are a copious source of virtual photons, which allow to study the gamma-proton and gamma-gamma interactions in ultraperipheral collisions (UPC). The exclusive photoproduction of heavy vector mesons provide a clean probe of the gluon distribution at very small values of parton fractional momenta (Bjorken x) x ≈10-2 10-4 at central rapidities (|y| < 2:5) and search for saturation phenomena
