Sumario:The Achromatic Telescopic Squeezing (ATS) scheme is a novel squeezing mechanism enabling the production of very low β* in circular colliders. The basic principles of the ATS scheme will be reviewed together with its strong justification for the High-Luminosity LHC Project. In this context, a few dedicated experiments with beam were meticulously prepared and took place at the LHC in 2011. The results obtained will be highlighted, demonstrating the potential of the ATS scheme for any upgrade project relying on a strong reduction of β*.
