We describe the gain on sensitivities to quartic $\gamma \gamma \gamma \gamma$, $\gamma \gamma WW$ and $\gamma \gamma \gamma Z$ anomalous couplings and to the search for Axion-Like Particles by two or three orders of magnitude with respect to standard methods at the LHC by tagging intact protons in the final state, and matching the information from the intact protons and the $WW$, $ZZ$,...
We discuss exclusive heavy vector meson photoproduction in proton-proton and lead-lead ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) at the LHC, initially in conventional collinear factorisation at NLO and then subsequently in a refined approach with a programme of low $x$ resummation and implementation of a crucial low $Q$ subtraction included. We compare and contrast predictions in both frameworks and...
