Description
In proton-proton collisions, quasi-real photons can be emitted and their
interaction can produce various final states. One such final state is a pair
of leptons. The exclusive production of dileptons can be calculated in QED
with small uncertainty and serves as standard candle for exclusive photon induced
measurements. Since only two back-to-back leptons are present in the
detector, the process can be clearly distinguished from background. This
allows to compare the predicted and measured cross-section. Such analysis is currently performed at 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector.
