22. A Forward Calorimeter in ALICE

Ionut Cristian Arsene (University of Oslo (NO))

Session 7: Future LHC experiments and EIC

The Forward Calorimeter (FoCal) is a high-granularity forward calorimeter to be installed as an ALICE upgrade subsystem during the LHC Long Shutdown 3 and take data during the LHC Run 4. It consists of a compact silicon-tungsten sampling electromagnetic calorimeter (FoCal-E) with pad and pixel readout layers to achieve high spatial and energy resolutions and a hadron calorimeter based on...

36. Light-by-light scattering in ultraperipheral collisions of heavy ions with future FoCal and ALICE 3 detectors

Antoni Szczurek

Session 7: Future LHC experiments and EIC

We discuss possible future studies of photon-photon (light-by-light)
scattering using planned FoCal and ALICE 3 detectors.
We include different mechanisms of $\gamma\gamma\to\gamma\gamma$
scattering such as double-hadronic photon fluctuations,
$t/u$-channel neutral pion exchange or resonance excitations
($\gamma \gamma \to R$) and deexcitation ($R \to \gamma \gamma$).
The broad range...

67. UPC physics with ALICE in Run 3

Anisa Khatun (The University of Kansas (US))

Session 1: Vector meson photoproduction

The ALICE experiment has undergone a major detector upgrade for Run 3, expanding its detection capabilities for a wide variety of studies. The new continuous readout, “trigger-less mode”, will significantly enhance the physics potential for ultra-peripheral collision analyses. In this talk, we will discuss some of the physics analyses that can be carried out in ultra-peripheral collisions...

40. Exclusive $\eta_c$ production by $\gamma \gamma^*$ interactions in electron-ion collisions

Izabela Babiarz (Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences)

Session 7: Future LHC experiments and EIC

One of the main goals of future electron-ion colliders is to improve our understanding of the structure of hadrons. We study the exclusive $\eta_c$ production by $\gamma^* \gamma$ nteractions in eA collisions and demonstrate that future experimental analysis of this process can be used to improve the description of the $\eta_c$ transition form factor. The rapidity, transverse momentum and...
