The main aim of the LHCf experiment is to provide precise measurements of the production spectra relative to neutral particles produced in the very forward region by high energy proton-proton and proton-ion collisions. This information is necessary in order to test and tune hadronic interaction models used by ground-based cosmic rays experiments. [...]

The Large Hadron Collider forward (LHCf) experiment was motivated to understand the hadronic interaction processes relevant to cosmic-ray air shower development. We have developed radiation-hard detectors with the use of Gd$_2$SiO$_5$ (GSO) scintillators for proton-proton $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV collisions. [...]

The Large Hadron Collider forward (LHCf) experiment measures the forward particle production at the LHC to verify hadronic interaction models used in air shower experiments. We have upgraded very small sampling and imaging calorimeters using GSO scintillators to measure the most energetic particles generated in s =13 TeV p–p collisions at the zero-degree region of the LHC.

Results of the LHCf experiment and the forward measurements at the LHC
/ Sako, T (Nagoya U., ISEE ; KMI, Nagoya) ; Adriani, O (INFN, Florence ; Florence U.) ; Berti, E (INFN, Florence ; Florence U.) ; Bonechi, L (INFN, Florence) ; Bongi, M (INFN, Florence ; Florence U.) ; Castellini, G (INFN, Florence ; IFAC, Florence) ; D'Alessandro, R (INFN, Florence ; Florence U.) ; Haguenauer, M (Ec.

The Large Hadron Collider is intensively used to test hadronic interaction models used in cosmic-ray physics because its maximum (designed) collision energy √s = 14 TeV corresponds to the interaction of a 1017 eV cosmic-ray proton hitting the atmosphere. In this paper various types of forward experiments at the LHC, where the particles relevant to the air shower development are observed, are reviewed. [...]

The LHC forward (LHCf) experiment consists of two small sampling calorimeters installed in the LHC tunnel at ±140 from IP1, so that it can detect neutral particles produced by p-ion collisions in the very forward region (pseudorapidity η > 8.4). The main aim of LHCf is to provide precise measurements of the particles produced in high-energy p-p and p-Pb collisions in order to tune hadronic interaction models used by ground-based cosmic rays experiments.
