Due to coherence, there are strong electromagnetic fields of short duration in very peripheral collisions. They give rise to photon-photon and photon-nucleus collisions with high flux up to an invariant mass region hitherto unexplored experimentally. After a general survey photon-photon luminosities in relativistic heavy ion collisions are discussed. Special care is taken to include the effects of strong interactions and nuclear size. Then photon-photon physics at various invariant mass scales is discussed. Invariant masses of up to about 100 GeV can be reached at LHC, and in addition the potential for new physics is available. Photonuclear reactions and other important background effects, especially diffractive processes are also discussed. Lepton-pair production, especially electron-positron pair production is copious. Due to the strong fields there will be new phenomena, especially multiple e+e- pair production.

This paper summarizes the Multiple Parton Interactions studies in CMS, focusing on the already performed low pT QCD measurements up to highest centre of mass energies of 7 TeV and discussing the plans for the direct measurement of the multiple high-p
T scatterings. The underlying event in pp interactions is studied measuring the charged multiplicity density and the charged energy density in the transverse region, which is defined considering the azimuthal distance of the reconstructed tracks with respect to the leading track-jet of the event, defined from tracks according to a jet clustering algorithms. In addition, we present the measurement of the underlying event using the jet-area/median approach, demonstrating its sensitivity to different underlying event scenarios. Observations in the central region are complemented by the mea- surement of the energy flow in the forward direction for minimum bias and central di-jet events. We compare our underlying event and forward results with the predictions from different Monte Carlo event generators and tunes, aiming to best parametrize the multiple parton interaction energy de- pendence starting from the Monte Carlo tunes developed to best fit the charged particle spectra measured at central rapidities. Finally we discuss the strategy to directly measure the multiple particle interactions rate focusing on the topologies with two hard scatterings in the same event.
The Future Circular Collider (FCC) Study is aimed at assessing the physics potential and the technical feasibility of a new collider with centre-of-mass energies, in the hadron-hadron collision mode, seven times larger than the nominal LHC energies.
Operating such machine with heavy ions is an option that is being considered in the accelerator design studies. It would provide, for example, Pb-Pb and p-Pb collisions at sqrt{s_NN} = 39 and 63 TeV, respectively, per nucleon-nucleon collision, with integrated luminosities above 30 nb^-1 per month for Pb-Pb. This is a report by the working group on heavy-ion physics of the FCC Study. First ideas on the physics opportunities with heavy ions at the FCC are presented, covering the physics of the Quark-Gluon Plasma, of gluon saturation, of photon-induced collisions, as well as connections with other fields of high-energy physics.
In a general two Higgs doublet model, we study flavor changing neutral Higgs (FCNH) decays into leptons at hadron colliders, $pp to phi^0 to tau^mpmu^pm +X$, where $phi^0$ could be a CP-even scalar ($h^0$, $H^0$) or a CP-odd pseudoscalar ($A^0$). The
light Higgs boson $h^0$ is found to resemble closely the Standard Model Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider. In the alignment limit of $cos(beta-alpha) cong 0$ for $h^0$--$H^0$ mixing, FCNH couplings of $h^0$ are naturally suppressed, but such couplings of the heavier $H^0, A^0$ are sustained by $sin(beta-alpha) simeq 1$. We evaluate physics backgrounds from dominant processes with realistic acceptance cuts and tagging efficiencies. We find promising results for $sqrt{s} = 14$ TeV, which we extend further to $sqrt{s} = 27$ TeV and 100 TeV future pp colliders.
Thanks to the excellent tracking and muon identification performance, combined with a flexible trigger system, the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider is conducting a rich and competitive program of measurements in the field of heavy flavor p
hysics. We review the status of b-quark production cross section measurements in inclusive and exclusive final states, the measurement of B hadron angular correlations, the search for rare $B^0_s$ and $B^0$ decays to dimuons, and the observation of the X(3872) resonance.
Thanks to the excellent performances of ATLAS and CMS in triggering on muon signals and reconstructing these particles down to low transverse momentum, large samples of heavy-flavored hadrons have been collected in the 2011 LHC run at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV
. The analysis of these samples has enabled both experiments to perform competitive measurements of heavy-flavor properties, such as quarkonium polarization, lifetime and CP-violation measurements, hadron spectroscopy and branching ratios of rare B decays.
