Can I read Ultra-peripheral collisions of heavy ions at RHIC and the LHC on EtoBox?
Ultra-peripheral collisions of heavy ions at RHIC and the LHC by Joakim Nystrand is a Physics and Astronomy article available to read on EtoBox.
What is Ultra-peripheral collisions of heavy ions at RHIC and the LHC about?
This paper deals with so-called Ultra-Peripheral Collisions (UPCs) of heavy ions [1,2]. These can be defined as collisions in which no hadronic interactions occur because of the large spatial separation between the projectile and target. The interactions are instead mediated by the electromagnetic field. Two types of ultra-peripheral collisions can be distinguished: purely electro-magnetic interactions (two-photon interactions) and photonuclear interactions, in which a photon from the projectile interacts with the hadronic component of the target.
Who reads Ultra-peripheral collisions of heavy ions at RHIC and the LHC?
It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Physics and Astronomy.
