Forward physics with the CMS experiment at the LHC

Forward physics to be investigated with CMS at the LHC includes a wide range of topics, including low-x QCD, diffractive scattering, and constraints of cosmic ray Monte Carlo predictions for multi-particle production. We describe the forward detection instrumentation around the CMS interaction point...

Sumario:Forward physics to be investigated with CMS at the LHC includes a wide range of topics, including low-x QCD, diffractive scattering, and constraints of cosmic ray Monte Carlo predictions for multi-particle production. We describe the forward detection instrumentation around the CMS interaction point and present selected feasibility studies to illustrate the physics potential.
