Central exclusive production (CEP) processes in high-energy proton
-(anti)proton collisions offer a very promising framework within which to study both novel aspects of QCD and new physics signals. We discuss
charmonium CEP applying the Durham model for evaluation of the rates and proton momentum correlations at the Tevatron and LHC energies.
We also present the results of a recent...

By using a Regge-pole model for vector meson production (VMP),
successfully describing the HERA data, we analyze the correlation
between VMP cross sections in photon-induced reactions and those in
ultra-peripheral collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The
important role of non-linear trajectories is emphasized. Predictions
for future experiments on production of $J/\psi$ and...

Ultraperipheral collisions in hadron colliders give new opportunites to investigate the hadron stucture through exclusive photoproduction processes. I will describe the possibility of measuring the Generalized Parton Distributions in the Timelike Compton Scattering process and in the production of heavy vector meson.

We discuss the mathematical ill-posedness of measuring diffractive cross sections at the LHC. As a solution, a Bayesian algorithmic framework is proposed to regularize the ill-posedness.

A polarization test for the formation of a resonance is developed and applied to determine the spin and the parity of the Higgs particle. The test is based on very general principle and is completely independent of dynamical assumptions. A set of observables are identified that distinguish between J^P =0^+, 0^-, 2^+, 2^- states.Furthermore, the same set of observables provide useful...
