32. 32 Towards Full Acceptance Detector (bj- 1992) IS THERE A WAY OUT ? Yes, an addition of Forward Shower Counters around beam pipes- low PU runs first results of combined CMS+ TOTEM measurements with the FSCs on (see showers from particles with | | = 7-9) ( Alice is installing such counters, ongoing studies for LHCb)

42. 42 An installation of the FSCs and RPs at the LHCb could strongly enhance physics potential for the CEP measurements. Currently active studies are in progress, both on the experimental and theory sides.
