dc.description.abstractEvidence for the light-by-light scattering process, ?????, in ultraperipheral PbPb collisions at a centre-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.02TeVis reported. The analysis is conducted using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 390?b?1recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC. Light-by-light scattering processes are selected in events with two photons exclusively produced, each with transverse energy E?T>2GeV, pseudorapidity |??| <2.4, diphoton invariant mass m??>5GeV, diphoton transverse momentum p??T<1GeV, and diphoton acoplanarity below 0.01. After all selection criteria are applied, 14 events are observed, compared to expectations of 9.0 ±0.9(theo)events for the signal and 4.0 ±1.2(stat)for the background processes. The excess observed in data relative to the background-only expectation corresponds to a significance of 3.7 standard deviations, and has properties consistent with those expected for the light-by-light scattering signal. The measured fiducial light-by-light scattering cross section, ?fid(?????) =120 ±46(stat)±28(syst)±12(theo)nb, is consistent with the standard model prediction. The m??distribution is used to set new exclusion limits on the production of pseudoscalar axion-like particles, via the ???a???process, in the mass range ma=5–90GeV.en_US
