Quarkonia production in ultra-peripheral PbPb collisions at LHCb (2301.00222v1)
Published 31 Dec 2022 in hep-ex and nucl-ex
Abstract: Measurements of coherent charmonium production cross sections together with their ratio in ultra-peripheral PbPb collisions are studied at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of $5.02\,\mathrm{TeV}$, the differential cross-sections are measured as a function of rapidity and transverse momentum, separately. The photo-production of \jpsi mesons at low transverse momentum is studied in peripheral PbPb collisions, which confirms coherent \jpsi production in hadronic collisions. These latest results significantly improve previous measurements and are compared with some theoretical predictions.
