The LHCf experiment is designed to measure energies and transverse momenta of neutral particles emitted in the forward region of root s=14 TeV p-p collision at +/- 140m away from the interaction point1 (IP1) of LHC. The energy resolution is confirm to be within 5% and the position resolution is better than 0.2 mm for gamma-rays with energies from 100 GeV to 200 GeV by the test beam results at the CERN-SPS. LHCf has taken data at 2009 and 2010 at root s = 900 GeV and 7 TeV collision. A brief summary of LHCf operation at LHC is also reported here.

Abstract
The LHCf experiment is designed to measure energies and transverse momenta of neutral particles emitted in the forward region of root s=14 TeV p-p collision at +/- 140m away from the interaction point1 (IP1) of LHC. The energy resolution is confirm to be within 5% and the position resolution is better than 0.2 mm for gamma-rays with energies from 100 GeV to 200 GeV by the test beam results at the CERN-SPS. LHCf has taken data at 2009 and 2010 at root s = 900 GeV and 7 TeV collision. A brief summary of LHCf operation at LHC is also reported here.
