Luminosity Measurement at the Compact Muon Solenoid Experiment of the LHC

This book describes the application of a novel technology for beam instrumentation and luminosity measurement and first results on a cutting edge technology potentially to be used after the upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider to higher luminosity.

It presents a unique diamond-based luminometer with a detailed performance study.

The online bunch-by-bunch luminosity measurements provide an invaluable...
