Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisions
The 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...

Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisions
Recent diffraction and forward physics results from the ATLAS experiment are presented, based on data collected in the Run I, which include measurements of forward rapidity gaps, gap fraction and azimuthal decorrelation using jet veto and total proton-proton cross section.

Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisions
We 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...

Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisions
Due 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...

Forward physics in hadron-hadron collisions
In 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.
