The analysis is performed over 10.4 units of pseudorapidity at a center-of-mass energy of $\\sqrt{s_{\\mathrm{NN}}}=8.16~\\text{TeV}$, i.e. almost 300 times higher than previous measurements of diffractive production in proton-nucleus collisions. For lead dissociation processes, which corresspond to the pomeron-lead event topology, the EPOS-LHC predictions are a factor of two below the unfolded data but the model does give a reasonable description of the shape of the spectrum. For the pomeron-proton topology the EPOS-LHC, QGSJET II and HIJING generator predictions are all at least a factor of five below the data. This effect can be explained by a significant contribution of ultra-peripheral photoproduction events mimicking the signature of diffractive processes. The obtained data may be of significant help in understanding the high energy limit of QCD and modeling cosmic ray air showers.","hasPart":[{"@id":"https://doi.org/10.17182/hepdata.88293.v1/t1","@type":"Dataset","description":"Differential cross section for events with Pomeron-Lead ($\\mathrm{I\\!P}\\mathrm{Pb}$) topology obtained at the reconstruction level for $|\\eta| &lt; 3$ region.
