Abstract : Special β∗ = 90 m optics have been developed for the two very high luminosity insertions of the LHC [1] [2], as a rst step to allow for very low angle precision measure- ments of the proton-proton collisions in the LHC. These optics were developed to be compatible with the stan- dard LHC injection and ramp optics. The target value of β∗ = 90 m is reached by an un-squeeze from the injection β∗ = 11 m. We report about the implementation of this op- tics and the rst experience gained in commissioning with beam during two machine studies.
