Description
Recent LHC results of proton-lead collisions with large forward rapidity gaps show a dominant role of photon exchange over pomeron one. A comparison of proton-lead and proton-proton events with forward rapidity gaps at LHC energy allows to estimate pomeron- and photon- exchange contribution dependences on atomic number and electric charge, respectively.
