LHC High Beta* Runs: Transport and Unfolding Methods

Abstract

The paper describes the transport of the elastically and diffractively scattered protons in the proton-proton interactions at the LHC for the high beta* runs. A parametrisation of the attered proton transport through the LHC magnetic lattice is presented. The accuracy of the unfolding of the kinematic variables of the scattered protons is discussed.
