Improving the accuracy of the BCT measurements in the LHC

Wednesday 12 Jan 2011, 09:00 → 19:00 Europe/Zurich

866/2-D05 (CERN)

Rhodri JONES

Mini-workshop on “Improving the accuracy of the BCT measurements in the LHC”.

The current performance, although in most cases adequate for machine operation, is limiting the accuracy to which the experiments can calculate the absolute luminosity and hence the accuracy of their measurements.

This mini-workshop will be combined with the “LHC Lumi Days” where the experimental requirements will be presented.
