Gas profile approximated by a rectangular spike of 8 × 1016 H2/m3
- ver 5 m centered at the RP220m location
The effect of this simple gas spike is limited by construction to the Q6-Q7 region
From these data, it can be concluded that an important pressure gradient is present around RP stations

normalisation is given by #interactions/s = I × ρ × σp-H2 × L where: I = 0.581/e A σp-H2 = 2 × σp-p ≃ 2 × 38.6 mb ρ = 8 × 1016 molecules/m3 L = 5.0 m that gives ~ 1.1 × 107 interactions/s

DS protection by TCL6
14
10 σ aperture of the TCL6 external jaw is necessary to protect Q9 This setting reduces the contribution of TCL6 to the impedance budget

Summary
- Losses in 2012 and 2011 due to pressure spike induced by RP insertion
- RP operation not harmful for Q6 and Q7, even with TCL6 open
- BLM signals expected with 7 TeV beams at nominal lumi as well as in
presence of a pressure spike have been evaluated
- If TCL6 is closed at 10 sigma, significant increase of the Q6 BLM signal
- TCL6 protects very effectively the DS, also in case of an asymmetric
aperture
