Observation of Exclusive Charmonium Production and gamma gamma -->mu+mu- in pp-bar Collisions at sqrt[s]=1.96 TeV

In CDF we have observed the reactions p+p̅ →p+X+p̅ , with X being a centrally produced J/ψ, ψ(2S), or χ[subscript c0], and γγ→μ[superscript +]μ[superscript -] in pp̅ collisions at √s=1.96  TeV. The event signature requires two oppositely charged central muons, and either no other particles or one ad...
