We investigate the sensitivity of the heavy ion mode of the LHC to Higgs boson and Radion production via photon-photon fusion through the analysis of the processes <FONT FACE=Symbol>gg</FONT> -> <FONT FACE=Symbol>gg</FONT>, <FONT FACE=Symbol>gg</FONT> -> <img id="_x0000_i1026" src="../../img/revistas/bjp/v34n1a/a08img09.gif" align=absmiddle>, and <FONT FACE=Symbol>gg ® gg</FONT>in peripheral heavy ion collisions. We suggest cuts to improve the Higgs and Radion signal over standard model background ratio and determine the capability of LHC to detect these particles production.
