Dr Mirko Berretti (CERN)12/09/2014, 08:30Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisionsThe TOTEM experiment measured the elastic, inelastic and total pp cross-section at sqrt(s)= 7 TeV and 8 TeV. The elastic scattering was measured in a large range of |t| allowing the determination of the pp cross-section, the discrimination among the elastic models and the study of the Coulomb-Nuclear interference |t|-region. The measurement of the charged particle dN/deta and the status of...Go to contribution page

Dr Grigory Safronov (ITEP)12/09/2014, 09:10Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisionsWe present recent CMS measurements on multijet correlations using forward and low-pT jets, focusing on searches for BFKL and saturation phenomena. In p-p collisions at sqrt(s)=7 TeV, azimuthal correlations in dijets separated in rapidity by up to 9.4 units were measured. The results are compared to BFKL- and DGLAP-based predictions. In p-p collisions at sqrt(s)=8 TeV, cross sections for...Go to contribution page

Dr Murilo Rangel (UFRJ)12/09/2014, 09:30Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisionsDue to its unique pseudorapidity coverage and the possibility of extending measurements to low transverse momenta, LHCb allows studies of different QCD processes in a kinematic range where models have large uncertainties. We present charged particle multiplicity measurements, different with respect to transverse momentum and pseudorapidity, as well as recent results on the energy flow and...Go to contribution page

Dr Christophe Royon (IRFU-SPP, CEA Saclay)12/09/2014, 10:10Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisionsIn this talk, we will describe briefly some of the physics topics that can be studied at the LHC using tagged protons, namely QCD and the structure of the pomeron in terms of quarks and gluons, as well as the search for extra-dimensions in the universe via anomalous couplings between photon, W and Z.Go to contribution page
