Proton scattering and collimation for the LHC and LHC luminosity upgrade

The Large Hadron collider (LHC) is a 7\,TeV per beam proton-proton collider. The high stored beam energy of the LHC (361.6\,MJ) requires unprecedented machine protection systems. As demonstrated in September 2008, failure of any one of these systems can lead to considerable damage, and hence delays...
