Аннотация:

The use of Roman Pots for forward physics is illustrated. The focus is on the ATLAS experiment, with some comparisons to the results of TOTEM. The ATLAS Roman Pots have two main tasks: the measurement of the total cross section at LHC energies and diffractive processes investigation. For both tasks, different Roman Pots are necessary: vertical Pots combined with a special beam optics to catch elastic events, and horizontal Pots for data taking with standard LHC optics. The tracking detectors inserted into the Roman Pots are multi-layer fiber detectors (vertical) and Si-pixel detectors (horizontal).
