Luminosity and beam parameter evoluation for lead ion beams in the LHC

Heavy ion beams in the LHC are subject to strong blow-up and debunching effects from intra-beam scattering and luminosity-driven beam losses. The large nuclear charge is at the origin of these effects, both in the cross sections for simple Coulomb scattering and the ultraperipheral interactions occu...

description Heavy ion beams in the LHC are subject to strong blow-up and debunching effects from intra-beam scattering and luminosity-driven beam losses. The large nuclear charge is at the origin of these effects, both in the cross sections for simple Coulomb scattering and the ultraperipheral interactions occurring in the collisions. We compare predictions from our models with data on luminosity, beam size and intensity evolution from the first heavy ion run of the LHC. This analysis has to take account of the varying capabilities of the LHC beam instrumentation between injection and collision energies.
