Exclusive electromagnetic production of pion pairs in lead-lead collisions at LHC *

The cross section for π+π− and π0π0 meson pairs production in peripheral ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is calculated in the impact parameter space equivalent photon approximation. The cross section is calculated at the energy available at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, √sNN = 3.5 TeV. For...
