Coherent photon-photon interactions in very peripheral relativistic heavy ion collisions
Heavy ions at high velocities provide very strong electromagnetic fields for a very short time. The main characteristics of ultraperipheral relativistic heavy ion collisions are reviewed, characteristic parameters are identified. The main interest in ultraperipheral heavy ion collisions at relativistic ion colliders like the LHC is the interactions of very high energy (equivalent) photons with ...
متن کاملBremsstrahlung from Electrons and Positrons in Peripheral Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions
We study the spectrum of the bremsstrahlung photons coming from the electrons and positrons, which are produced in the strong electromagnetic fields present in peripheral relativistic heavy ion collisions. We compare different approaches, making use of the exact pair production cross section in heavy ion collisions as well as the double equivalent photon approximation. 25.75.-q,13.40.-f Typeset...
متن کاملPhotoproduction in Ultra-Peripheral Heavy Ion Collisions at STAR
We present recent STAR results on photoproduction in ultra-peripheral relativistic heavy ion collisions. In these collisions the impact parameter of the beam particles is larger than the sum of their nuclear radii, so that they interact via their long-range Coulomb fields. STAR has measured the production of ρ(770) mesons in exclusive reactions as well as in processes with mutual nuclear excita...
متن کاملPhoton-Photon and Photon-Hadron Interactions at Relativistic Heavy Ion Colliders
In central collisions at relativistic heavy ion colliders like the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider RHIC/Brookhaven and the Large Hadron Collider LHC (in its heavy ion mode) at CERN/Geneva, one aims at detecting a new form of hadronic matter — the Quark Gluon Plasma. We discuss here a complementary aspect of these collisions, the very peripheral ones. Due to coherence, there are strong electroma...
