ALICE 2017 luminosity determination for pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 5 TeV

Luminosity determination in ALICE is based on visible cross sections measured in van der Meer scans. In November 2017, the Large Hadron Collider provided proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 5 TeV. A van der Meer scan was performed, in which the cross section was measu...

description Luminosity determination in ALICE is based on visible cross sections measured in van der Meer scans. In November 2017, the Large Hadron Collider provided proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 5 TeV. A van der Meer scan was performed, in which the cross section was measured for two classes of visible interactions, based on particle detection in the ALICE luminometers: the T0 detector with pseudorapidity coverage $4.6<\eta< 4.9$, $-3.3<\eta<-3.0$ and the V0 detector with pseudorapidity coverage $2.8<\eta< 5.1$, $-3.7<\eta<-1.7$. This document describes the experimental setup for such a measurement and reports its results.
