Anomalous WWgamma couplings in gamma-proton collision at the LHC

Abstract

We examine the potential of pp-> p gamma p -> p W q X reaction to probe anomalous WWgamma couplings at the LHC. We find 95% confidence level bounds on the anomalous coupling parameters with various values of the integrated luminosity. We show that the reaction pp -> p gamma p -> p W q X at the LHC highly improve the current limits.
