Exclusive γγ → μ⁺μ⁻ production in proton-proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV

Exclusive γγ → μ⁺μ⁻ production in proton-proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV

A measurement of the exclusive two-photon production of muon pairs in proton-proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV, pp → pμ⁺μ⁻ p, is reported using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 40 pb⁻¹. For muon pairs with invariant mass greater than 11:5 GeV, transverse momentum p (μ) > 4 GeV and...
