Luminosity Measurement at DAFNE for Crab Waist Scheme

2008 
Since the beginning of 2008 the DAFNE complex started to test the "crabbed scheme" to improve the luminosity performance of the accelerator. In order to ensure a fast, accurate and absolute measurement of the luminosity and to fully understand the background conditions, the new interaction region has been equipped with three different luminosity monitors: a Bhabha calorimeter, a Bhabha GEM tracker and a gamma bremsstrahlung proportional counter. The detectors design, construction, and performance, as well as the first measurements performed at DAFNE during the crab waist commissioning are here presented. Data are also compared with the Monte Carlo simulations of the full setup. First results acquired during the SIDDHARTA run are supposed to be presented.
