The LHCf experiment is an LHC experiment dedicated to measure the production spectra of forward neutral particles, photons, π0s and neutrons. The obtained results are very useful to test hadronic interaction models which are used in MC simulations for cosmic-ray air shower developments. The LHCf had an operation in 2015 with p–p collisions at s√ = 13 TeV, which corresponds to the collision energy of 0.9 × 1017 eV in the laboratory frame. We discuss the results of the inclusive energy spectra for forward photons obtained at p–p, s√ = 13 TeV data as well as π0 results taken at p–p, s√ = 7 TeV. In addition we introduce future prospects of LHCf analyses and activities.

Abstract
The LHCf experiment is an LHC experiment dedicated to measure the production spectra of forward neutral particles, photons, π0s and neutrons. The obtained results are very useful to test hadronic interaction models which are used in MC simulations for cosmic-ray air shower developments. The LHCf had an operation in 2015 with p–p collisions at s√ = 13 TeV, which corresponds to the collision energy of 0.9 × 1017 eV in the laboratory frame. We discuss the results of the inclusive energy spectra for forward photons obtained at p–p, s√ = 13 TeV data as well as π0 results taken at p–p, s√ = 7 TeV. In addition we introduce future prospects of LHCf analyses and activities.
