• The electromagnetic field is equivalent to a large flux of quasi-real photons, and<br />

can be calcul<strong>at</strong>ed per (Fermi)-Weizsacker-Williams:<br />

• Can get large flux due to the coherent effect of protons <strong>in</strong> nucleus (~Z 2 )<br />

• Two processes:<br />

1. photon-photon (coherent)<br />

2. photon-nucleon (<strong>in</strong>coherent,photoproduction)<br />
