Description

The TOTEM (TOTal cross section and Elastic scattering Measurement) collaboration at the LHC aims at measuring the total, elastic scattering over a large range of 4-momentum transfer, and single diffractive scattering and double Pomeron exchange cross sections in proton-proton collisions at 10 to 14 TeV center of mass energies. The physics motivations are outlined, the beam optics requirements are presented together with a first solution for a dedicated insertion. The instrumental aspects are only quoted qualitatively.
