| ABSTRACT: |
Experimental prospects for studying high-energy photon interactions at the
LHC are discussed. The role of the forward proton detectors in selection
and reconstruction of such events is described, and then physics cases for
the two-photon exclusive pair production and photon-proton interactions
are introduced. Several examples, as the associated WH photo-production,
or two-photon production of supersymmetric pairs are discussed in more
detail, including irreducible backgrounds.
