Abstract

We have investigated nonstandard v (v) over barv and v (v) over bar gamma gamma couplings via v (v) over bar production in a gamma p collision at the LHC. We obtain 95% confidence level bounds on v (v) over bar gamma and v (v) over bar gamma gamma couplings by considering three different forward detector acceptances: 0: 0015< xi < 0: 15, 0: 0015 < xi < 0: 5, and 0: 1< xi < 0: 5. We show that the reaction pp -> p gamma p -> pv (v) over bar qX provides more than eight orders of magnitude improvement in neutrino- two photon couplings compared to LEP limits.
