Abstract
The Large Hadron Collider will allow studies of {gamma}{gamma} and photoproduction interactions at energies significantly higher than previous experiments, in both pp and heavy ion collisions. In this article, studies of the feasibility of measuring {gamma}{gamma} {yields} {ell}{sup +}{ell}{sup -}, {gamma}p {yields} {Upsilon}p {yields} {ell}{sup +}{ell}{sup -}p, and {gamma}A {yields} {Upsilon}A {yields} {ell}{sup +}{ell}{sup -}A processes in early LHC data with the CMS detector are presented.
