Diffractive and ultraperipheral physics with ALICE

The ALICE experiment consists of a central barrel, a muon spe ctrometer, zero degree calorimeters and additional detectors for trigger and event classificati on purposes. Such a geometry allows the implementation of a double gap trigger. A diffractive physi cs program of ALICE is outlined and a few...

Sumario:The ALICE experiment consists of a central barrel, a muon spe ctrometer, zero degree calorimeters and additional detectors for trigger and event classificati on purposes. Such a geometry allows the implementation of a double gap trigger. A diffractive physi cs program of ALICE is outlined and a few specific reaction channels are discussed in order to ill ustrate the interest in such a diffractive physics program
