The physics programme of the TOTEM experiment requires the detection of very forward protons scattered by only a few microradians out of the LHC beams. Therefore, the experiment has inserted stacks of planar Silicon detectors in moveable near-beam telescopes (so called Roman Pots) located along the beam-line on both sides of the interaction point IP5. The precise knowledge of the LHC optics...
