Abstract

The intensity and therefore the luminosity of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is limited by beam-beam effects.Some of these effects are a consequence of the LHC design, such as crossing angle, two-in-one dipoles and PACMAN bunches.The various effects are discussed and the resulting limitations are presented.The performance is estimated and possible improvements are discussed.
