A bstract We describe a proposal to add a set of very forward detectors to the CMS
experiment for the high-luminosity era of the Large Hadron Collider to search for beyond the …

A good understanding of the luminosity performance in a collider, as well as reliable tools to
analyse, predict, and optimise the performance, is of great importance for the successful …

The High-Luminosity LHC Project aims to increase the integrated luminosity that will be
collected by the Large Hadron Collider for the needs of the high energy physics frontier by …

A variety of processes can cause unavoidable beam losses during normal and abnormal
beam operation. Because of the high stored energy of about 700 MJ and the small …

Electrons lenses produce a high-intensity electron beam and have a variety of applications
to circular hadron accelerators. Electron beams of different transverse cross sections and …

This report describes the running scenario for operation with Pb-Pb and p-Pb collisions in
the HL-LHC. The expected beam parameters are described, starting from the beams …

Protons and heavy-ion beams at unprecedented energies are brought into collisions in the
CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for high-energy experiments. The LHC multistage …

Beam collimation in high-energy colliders is customarily carried out by means of massive
amorphous absorbers surrounding the circulating beam. Several studies were performed in …

The design stored beam energy in the CERN high-luminosity large hadron collider (HL-
LHC) upgrade is about 700 MJ, with about 36 MJ in the beam tails, according to estimates …

The CMS detector, including its muon system, has been operating at the CERN LHC in
increasingly challenging conditions for about 15 years. The muon detector was designed to …
