Automated next-to-leading order QCD and electroweak predictions of photon-photon processes in ultraperipheral collisions
摘要
We present automated next-to-leading order QCD and/or electroweak (EW) predictions for photon-photon processes in ultraperipheral high-energy collisions of protons and ions, extending the capabilities of the MadGraph5_aMC@NLO framework together in combination with the gamma-UPC code. Key aspects of this extension are discussed. We compute QCD and/or EW quantum corrections for several phenomenologically interesting processes at LHC and FCC-hh energies.
