Exclusive dimuon measurements with LHCb

We report on studies of exclusive dimuon production, using LHCb experimental data. Muon pairs can be exclusively produced by two-photon fusion (a QED process ideally suited to obtaining a precise integrated luminosity measure), or by resonance production. We show results for exclusive dimuon product...

description We report on studies of exclusive dimuon production, using LHCb experimental data. Muon pairs can be exclusively produced by two-photon fusion (a QED process ideally suited to obtaining a precise integrated luminosity measure), or by resonance production. We show results for exclusive dimuon production, and first observations of the exclusive $J/\psi, \psi(2S)$ and $\chi_c$ states, obtained with 37 pb$^{–1}$ of data at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV. We compare our cross-section measurements to predictions.
