We have performed the first measurement of the coherent k to view the MathML source">ψ(2S) photo-production cross section in ultra-peripheral PbPb collisions at the LHC. This charmonium excited state is reconstructed via the k to view the MathML source">ψ(2S)→l+l− and k to view the MathML source">ψ(2S)→J/ψπ+π− decays, where the k to view the MathML source">J/ψ decays into two leptons. The analysis is based on an event sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about k to view the MathML source">22 μb−1. The cross section for coherent k to view the MathML source">ψ(2S) production in the rapidity interval k to view the MathML source">−0.9<y<0.9 is . The k to view the MathML source">ψ(2S) to k to view the MathML source">J/ψ coherent cross section ratio is . The obtained results are compared to predictions from theoretical models.
