  • Abstract
    The low beta triplet in the Tevatron is instrumented such that it is possible to move the horizontal and/or the vertical beta star in the longitudinal direction. This control over beta star allows us to minimize the longitudinal separation of horizontal and vertical beta star at each interaction region independently, thus maximizing the luminosity. Results of varying the longitudinal separation of horizontal and vertical beta star are shown and the sensitivity of the luminosity on this parameter is discussed
