Description
In high-energy physics, understanding and describing interactions involving protons is essential. One of the first steps needed is to correctly model the proton. Assuming minimization of the momentum flux within the proton, the Y-shaped proton is the natural choice. Since the investigations focus on particle collisions and considering that charges in ultrarelativistic motion produce a photonic field, we worked on modeling the photoproduction of a Y-shaped proton focusing on latter use on a better description of the ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) and investigated the impact of the charge distribution on the photon flux for this shape of proton.
