Simulation of Beam-Gas Scattering in the LHC

Yngve Levinsen, H. Burkhardt, Vadim Talanov

Abstract

We report on background studies for the LHC with detailed simulations. The simulations now include generation of beam-gas scattering in combination with multiturn tracking of protons. Low beta optics and available aperture files for this configuration make it possible to generate loss maps according to the pressure distribution in the LHC.
