Abstract
The strong electromagnetic fields present in ultra-peripheral collisions of heavy-ions offer a possibility to study two-photon and photonuclear collisions complementary to similar studies with lepton beams but over an increased photon energy range. This presentation will give an overview of photoproduction at hadron colliders.
