Abstract (data abstract)
Measurement of the fiducial cross section of light-by-light scattering and exclusion limits on axion-like-particles in lead-lead collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV with 390 mub^-1 of data collected in 2015. The fiducial region is defined as: - 2Gamma - pt_Gamma > 2 GeV - $|\eta_{\gamma}| < 2.4$ - exluding 1.444<|$\eta$|<1.566 region - m_GammaGamma > 5 GeV - pt_GammaGamma < 1 GeV - aco_GammaGamma < 0.01
