Descripción
Experimental aspects of precision measurements at the LHC are discussed. In particular, various methods of the luminosity measurement are described as well as the precision requirements for the `base-line' physics programme. One of these methods involves an accurate measurement of the inelastic and elastic proton-proton scattering using very forward detectors. A possibility of tagging two-photon production at the LHC using these detectors is also discussed.
