Abstract A search is performed for exclusive high-mass γγWW and γγZZ production in proton-proton collisions using intact forward protons reconstructed in near-beam detectors, with both weak bosons decaying into boosted and merged jets. The analysis is based on a sample of proton-proton collisions collected by the CMS and TOTEM experiments at s= 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 100 fb1. No excess above the standard model background prediction is observed, and upper limits are set on the pppWWp and pppZZp cross sections in a fiducial region defined by the diboson invariant mass m(VV)> 1 TeV (with V=W,Z) and proton fractional momentum loss 0.04 <ξ< 0.20. The results are interpreted as new limits on dimension-6 and dimension-8 anomalous quartic gauge couplings.
