LHCf started data taking in December 2009, when the LHC started to provide stable collisions of protons at $\sqrt{s}$=900\,GeV. Since March 2010, LHC increased the collision energy up to $\sqrt{s}$=7\,TeV. By the time of the symposium, LHCf collected 113k events of high energy showers (corresponding to $\sim$7M inelastic collisions) at $\sqrt{s}$=900\,GeV and $\sim$100M showers ($\sim$14 nb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity) at $\sqrt{s}$=7\,TeV. Analysis results with the first limited sample of data demonstrate that LHCf will provide crucial data to improve the interaction models to understand very high-energy cosmic-ray air showers.arXiv:1010.0195C21C21oai:cds.cern.ch:12964552010-10-04 |
