Exclusive photoproduction is measured for the first time in ultraperipheral pPb collisions at with the CMS detector. The cross section is b at for photon-proton centre-of-mass energies between 29 and . The differential cross section is measured in the interval as a function of , where is the squared four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex. The results are compared with previous measurements and theoretical predictions. The measured cross section has a power-law dependence on the photon-proton centre-of-mass, consistent with electron-proton collision measurements performed at HERA. The dependence of the exponential slope of the differential cross section is also measured.

The exclusive photoproduction of meson states from protons, (with ), is studied in ultraperipheral Pb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of . The measurement is performed using the decay mode, with data collected by the CMS experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 32.6 .

We present the first measurement at the LHC of exclusive J/ψ photoproduction off protons, in ultraperipheral proton-lead collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV. Events are selected with a dimuon pair produced either in the rapidity interval, in the laboratory frame, 2.
