  New high-beta and very high-beta optics has been sought in order to find the best possible configuration for measuring total cross section in TOTEM and absolute luminosity in ATLAS. They are based on nominal powering scheme of the low-beta triplet. A list of the various possible solution is given in this report. A particularly interesting solution has been found for a case where the phase advance in both planes at the detector location are close to pi/2.

  The systematic dodecapole component in the Main Quadrupoles of the LHC lattice has a strong influence on the machine dynamic aperture at injection. In this paper we quantify this effect with the help of tracking studies, explain the mechanism for the loss in dynamic aperture and look into potential correction schemes. Finally, we provide an estimate for the maximum allowed systematic dodecapole component in the MQ.
