Abstract

The ALICE Collaboration reports three measurements in ultraperipheral proton-lead collisions at forward rapidity. The exclusive two-photon process gamma gamma ->mu(+)mu(-) and the exclusive photoproduction of J/psi are studied. J/psi photoproduction with proton dissociation is measured for the first time at a hadron collider. The cross section for the two-photon process of dimuons in the invariant mass range from 1 to 2.5 GeV/c(2) agrees with leading-order quantum electrodynamics calculations. The exclusive and dissociative cross sections for J/psi photoproductions are measured for photon-proton center-of-mass energies from 27 to 57 GeV. They are in good agreement with HERA results.
