Luminosity measuring processes at the LHC

Luminosity measuring processes at the LHC

We study the theoretical accuracy of various methods that have been proposed to measure the luminosity of the LHC pp collider, as well as for Run II of the Tevatron \(p\bar{p}\) collider. In particular we consider methods based on (i) the total and forward elastic data, (ii) lepton-pair production a...

Zusammenfassung:We study the theoretical accuracy of various methods that have been proposed to measure the luminosity of the LHC pp collider, as well as for Run II of the Tevatron \(p\bar{p}\) collider. In particular we consider methods based on (i) the total and forward elastic data, (ii) lepton-pair production and (iii) W and Z production.
