XY Factorization Bias in Luminosity Measurements
Anna Fehérkuti, Péter Major, Gabriella Pásztor
For most high-precision experiments in particle physics, it is essential to know the luminosity at highest accuracy. The luminosity is determined by the convolution of particle den…

Diffraction and elastic scattering at the LHC
Anna Fehérkuti
Several LHC experiments exploit the high acceptance in the forward region. Most of them use the possibility of measuring the intact proton in an elastic event. This approach can en…
