Abstract
The long-range beam-beam interactions limit the achievable luminosity in the Tevatron. During the past year several studies were performed on ways of removing the limitations at all stages of the operational cycle. We report here on some of these studies, including the effects of changing the helical orbits at injection and collision, tune and chromaticity scans and coupling due to the beam-beam interactions.
