Abstrakt: ATLAS Forward Proton (AFP) detector, ~210m away from both sides of the interaction point, started taking data in standard high luminosity environment and full system ready in 2017. AFP study the events in which intact protons emerge from ATLAS pp collisions with the detectors close to the LHC beam, and many interesting scattering processes characterized by protons emitted at very low angles. One of the interesting processes, when proton-proton (pp) beams collide at the LHC, is that protons radiate quasi-real photons where the interactions occur at a perceptible rate. Compared to other final states, the pair lepton production is a clean process of the photon-induced production mechanism and provide a unique opportunity to study high-energy electroweak processes. In our analysis, we have investigated the photon-induced di-muon final states in pp collision where AFP delivers single (one side) and double (both sides) proton tags for ATLAS. We have presented the pair muon results with the preliminary MC analysis in 2017 ATLAS data, and AFP correlated protons.
