Abstract
In this contribution we summarize recent results on the computation of cross sections for glueball candidates production in quasi-real photon-photon collisions and on central diffraction processes, i.e. double Pomeron exchange, in heavy ion interactions at the LHC are computed. In particular, we provide predictions for the production of exotic mesons f0(1500), f0(1710) and X(1835). The rates for these distinct production channels are compared.
