CT-PPS physics results and prospects

A unique search for physics beyond the standard model in exclusive diphoton events is presented. By measuring intact protons from the events in the forward region, we can significantly reduce the background, leading to the best sensitivity to anomalous coupling behavior. Furthermore, by studying the...

Sumario:A unique search for physics beyond the standard model in exclusive diphoton events is presented. By measuring intact protons from the events in the forward region, we can significantly reduce the background, leading to the best sensitivity to anomalous coupling behavior. Furthermore, by studying the $\gamma \gamma \rightarrow \gamma \gamma$ process we can shed light on the high mass regions of Axion-like particles, and potential dark matter candidates.
