Sumario:The main subject of this project were feasibility studies for the reconstruction of $\eta$ and $\omega$ mesons in p-Pb collisions, employing the different techniques used in ALICE, focusing on the detection channels in which the PCM method can improve the extraction of the mesons. However, studies combining PCM photons with photons detected in the calorimeters were also performed as well as studies where both photons were detected in the calorimeters. Outputs of this project are corrected yields for $\eta$ and $\omega$ mesons for various $p_T$.
