Collimation-induced experimental background studies at the CERN Large Hadron Collider

The data produced at the particle physics experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) contain not only the signals from the collisions, but also a background component from proton losses around the accelerator. Understanding, identifying and possibly mitigating this machine-induced background is...
