Can I read Coherent vector meson production in ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions at STAR on EtoBox?

Coherent vector meson production in ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions at STAR by F. Meissner is a Physics and Astronomy article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Coherent vector meson production in ultra-peripheral heavy-ion collisions at STAR about?

We report the first observation of coherent p" production (AuAu + AuAupO) and p" production accompanied by mutual nuclear Coulomb excitation (AuAu + Au\*Au\*p'), and the observation of coherent e+e-pair production (AuAu -+ Au\*Au\*e+e-) in ultraperipheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions (UPCs). We give transverse momentum, mass, and rapidity distributions. The cross sections for coherent p" production at JsNN= 130 and 200 GeV are in agreement with theoretical predictions, which treat p" production and nuclear excitation as independent processes. \*For the full author list and acknowledgements, see Appendix "Collaborations" of this volume.
