Description
Ultra-relativistic heavy ions generate strong electromagnetic fields which offer
the possibility to study gamma--gamma and gamma-nucleus processes at the
LHC in the so called ultra-peripheral collisions (UPC). The coherent photoproduction
of J/Psi vector mesons in UPC is sensitive to the gluon distribution
of the interacting nuclei. Here we report on ALICE results of J/Psi coherent
production measured in PbPb collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 2.76 TeV where
the J/Psi has been measured in the mu mu decay channel with the Alice
Muon Spectrometer in the rapidity range -3.6
