Investigating the exclusive toponium production at the LHC and FCC

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: An exploratory study of the exclusive toponium production in p p , p P b , and P b P b collisions at the center-of-mass energies of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and Future Circular Collider (FCC) is performed. Assuming that the toponium is a pseudoscalar t t ¯ state, we consider its exclusive production by photon and gluon-induced interactions. Results for the total cross sections and associated rapidity distributions are presented, and the number of events at the LHC and FCC are estimated.
