# Photoproduction of mixed radions at a proton-proton collider

## TL;DR

This paper explores the potential to detect Higgs-radion mixing at the LHC and future colliders through single radion photoproduction, analyzing decay channels and setting bounds on mixing parameters.

## Contribution

It introduces a novel analysis of radion production via photon-induced processes at colliders, providing bounds on mixing parameters and comparing LHC with future collider capabilities.

## Key findings

- Bounds on radion-Higgs mixing parameter space established.
- Analysis of radion decay channels $\gamma\gamma$, $W^+W^-$, and $ZZ$.
- Comparison of LHC and future 100 TeV collider sensitivities.

## Abstract

We investigate Higgs-radion mixing scenario through single radion photoproduction process $pp\to p\gamma p\to pRqX$ at the LHC where $X$ represents the remnants of one of the initial protons. We consider high luminosity values of $L_{int}=200\;fb^{-1}$, $500\;fb^{-1}$ and $3000\;fb^{-1}$. We obtain bounds on the mixing parameter space by considering $R\to \gamma\gamma$, $R\to W^+ W^-$ and $R\to ZZ$ decay channels of the radion as the signal. We also perform a similar analysis for a 100 TeV future proton-proton collider and compare its potential with that of LHC.
