Optics correction in the LHC is challenged by the tight aperture constrains and the demand of a highly performing BPM system. To guarantee that the LHC optics remains within a maximum allowable beta-beating of 20% several methods are being investigated through computer simulations and experiments at existing hadron machines. A software package to consolidate the implementation of the various techniques during LHC operation is underway (or nearing completion)

A short lifetime at collision is one of the limits on luminosity performance at KEKB in crab crossing mode. The beam-beam halo was evaluated via simulation. The beam lifetime and profile were measured for various beam conditions, vertical emittances, tunes and collision offsets. We discuss why the lifetime is shortened by the beam-beam interaction.
