Abstract:
Feasibility studies for the measurement of single-diffractive Z or W boson production in the electron and muon channels, J/$\psi$ production in the muon decay channel and central exclusive dijet production, in proton-proton (pp) collisions with the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) and TOTal Elastic and diffractive cross section Measurement (TOTEM) experiments are presented. Visible cross sections are defined for such processes and presented along with the expected event yields based on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) Run II high-$\beta^{*}$ beam optics configuration, low-pileup scenario, assuming an integrated luminosity of 10~${\rm pb}^{-1}$.
