LHC optics measurement with proton tracks detected by the Roman pots of the TOTEM experiment

Precise knowledge of the beam optics at the LHC is crucial to fulfill the physics goals of the TOTEM experiment, where the kinematics of the scattered protons is reconstructed with near-beam telescopes—so-called Roman pots (RP). Before being detected, the protons’ trajectories are influenced by the...
