Transverse beam tails due to inelastic scattering

Non-Gaussian beam tails producing low beam lifetimes and background to the experimental detectors can be a serious performance limitation in colliding beam facilities. We describe simulations and measurements of non-Gaussian beam tails performed on the e^{+}e^{-} collider LEP that revealed the impor...
