      Ultra-peripheral collisions in CMS 1h

      The LHC is not only the most powerful collider for proton–proton and heavy-ion collisions, but also for photon–photon and photon–hadron interactions, offering a unique opportunity to study fundamental aspects of QED and QCD via photon-induced processes. In recent years there has been an increasing interest in these physics processes that can be studied in ultra-peripheral collisions (UPC) in hadronic colliders. During the seminar I will discuss recent results on ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions measured at the LHC and explain the aim of my analysis.
