Beam-Background Tests with TOTEM Roman Pot Detectors at the LHC Injection Energy

With the aim of measuring the total cross-section and the ρ parameter, TOTEM has performed tests of beam conditions at the LHC injection energy of s = 900   GeV . The tests have revealed complications in setting up the LHC collimators to minimise the background observ...
