Summary of Session 8 "High Luminosity (HL-LHC)"

Session 8 of the 2011 Chamonix LHC Perfomance Workshop addressed the scenarios for the High Luminosity LHC upgrade project (HL-LHC). It covered the performance expectations without any upgrade, with very low beta* optics using a new scheme called ATS and with the full spectra of the hardware and beam parameter enhancements. In addition the session integrated a synthesis of the lessons from past colliders and a survey of the possible requests of the experiments Alice and LHCb
