▪ Abstract Moving highly-charged ions carry strong electromagnetic fields that act as a beam
of photons. In collisions at large impact parameters, hadronic interactions are not possible …

Due to coherence, there are strong electromagnetic fields of short duration in very peripheral
collisions. They give rise to photon–photon and photon–nucleus collisions with a high flux …

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 …

Ion-atom collisions at relativistic beam energies constitute a new field of systematic
experimental and theoretical studies. With the aid of sufficiently energetic heavy-ion beams …

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 …

We study the potential of a large heavy-ion collider for the measurement of the
electromagnetic properties of the tau lepton. Measuring the anomalous magnetic and the …

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 …

In these proceedings we use recent LHC heavy-ion data to set a limit on axion-like particles
coupling to electromagnetism with mass in the range 10-100 GeV. We recast ATLAS data as …

Relativistic heavy-ion collisions become interesting as a source of intense beams of
photons, where the two-photon production of particles like the Higgs boson can be studied …

The cross sections for the production of hadrons in quasi-real photon-photon collisions in
proton-proton and heavy ion interactions are compared with the corresponding cross …
