Effective γ− γ luminosities are calculated for various realistic hadron collider scenarios. The
main characteristics of photon-photon processes at relativistic heavy-ion colliders are …

Photon-photon fluxes are calculated for relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Special care is taken
of nuclear absorption effects, they reduce the γ fluxes and also lead to a polarization effect …

The high flux of equivalent photons present in relativistic heavy ion collisions of two charges
Z 1 and Z 2 gives rise to the collision of two equivalent photons. The cross-sections for …

We study the γ− γ mechanism for relativistic heavy ions where the photon-photon interaction
occurs inside one of the nuclei. Strong absorption effects in overlapping collisions are also …

It is very likely that in 3-4 years the construction of one or two linear colliders with cms
energy up to 0.5--1.5 TeV will be started. Besides e^+ e^-collisions, linear colliders give a …

Heavy-ion collisions are a potentially prolific source of γ γ collisions at very-high-energy
colliders. However, their utility is limited to events in which the nuclei miss each other. The …

Direct photons have been proposed as a promising signature for the quark–gluon plasma
(QGP) formation in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Recently WA98 presented the first data …

In central collisions at relativistic heavy ion colliders such as the Relativistic Heavy Ion
Collider (RHIC), Brookhaven and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)(in its heavy ion mode) at …

Relativistic heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC represent an intense source for photon
induced processes. The strong transverse electromagnetic fields of the colliding heavy ions …

The production of mesons in ultraperipheral collisions of relativistic heavy ions is reanalyzed
using a projection technique to calculate the amplitudes for the appropriate Feynman …
