Forward Proton Scattering in Association with Muon Pair Production via the Photon Fusion Mechanism at the LHC

Dilepton production in proton–proton collision through γγ-fusion with one proton scattered elastically while the second produces a hadron jet is considered. Semi-analytical formulas describing the cross section for a muon pair production are presented.
