The new detector improves the capabilities of LHCb for studies of diffractive interactions, most notably Central Exclusive Production. In this paper the construction, installation, commissioning, and performance of HeRSCheL are presented.22 p.application/pdfengcc-by (c) Carvalho Akiba, K. et al., 2018http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/esAcceleradors de partículesParticle acceleratorsThe HeRSCheL detector: high-rapidity shower counters for LHCbinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6753582018-04-23info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
