	Maintaining head-on collisions over many hours is an important aspect of optimizing the performance of a collider. For current LHC operation where the beam optics is fixed during periods of colliding beam, mainly ground motion induced perturbations have to be compensated. The situation will become significantly more complex when luminosity leveling will be applied following the LHC luminosity upgrades. During β^* leveling the optics in the interaction region changes significantly, feed-downs from quadrupole misalignment may induce significant orbit changes that may lead to beam offsets at the collision points. Such beam offsets induce a loss of luminosity and reduce the stability margins for collective effects that is provided by head-on beam-beam. It is therefore essential that the beam offsets at the collision points are minimized during the leveling process. This paper will review sources and mitigation techniques for the orbit perturbation at the collision points during β^* leveling, and present results of experiments performed at the LHC to mitigate and compensate such offsets.

	The HL-LHC project foresees to boost the LHC peak luminosity beyond the capabilities of the LHC experimental detectors. Leveling the luminosity down to a constant value that is sustainable for the experiments is therefore the operational baseline of HL-LHC. Various luminosity leveling techniques are available at the LHC. Leveling by adjusting β^, the betatron function at the interaction point, to maintain a constant luminosity is favorable because the beams remain head-on which provides optimal stability from the point of view of collective effects. Smooth leveling by β^ requires however excellent control of the beam orbits and beam losses in the interaction regions since the beam offsets should not vary by more than around one r.m.s. beam size during the process.

This paper presents results on luminosity leveling over a β^* range from 10 m to 0.8 m and provides an outlook on future developments and use of this technique at the LHC.

Maintaining head-on collisions over many hours is an important aspect of optimizing the performance of a collider. For current LHC operation where the beam optics is fixed during periods of colliding beam, mainly ground motion induced perturbations have to be compensated. The situation will become significantly more complex when luminosity leveling will be applied following the LHC luminosity upgrades. During β^* leveling the optics in the interaction region changes significantly, feed-downs from quadrupole misalignment may induce significant orbit changes that may lead to beam offsets at the collision points. Such beam offsets induce a loss of luminosity and reduce the stability margins for collective effects that is provided by head-on beam-beam. It is therefore essential that the beam offsets at the collision points are minimized during the leveling process. This paper will review sources and mitigation techniques for the orbit perturbation at the collision points during β^* leveling, and present results of experiments performed at the LHC to mitigate and compensate such offsets.

The HL-LHC project foresees to boost the LHC peak luminosity beyond the capabilities of the LHC experimental detectors. Leveling the luminosity down to a constant value that is sustainable for the experiments is therefore the operational baseline of HL-LHC. Various luminosity leveling techniques are available at the LHC. Leveling by adjusting β^*, the betatron function at the interaction point, to maintain a constant luminosity is favorable because the beams remain head-on which provides optimal stability from the point of view of collective effects. Smooth leveling by β^* requires however excellent control of the beam orbits and beam losses in the interaction regions since the beam offsets should not vary by more than around one r.m.s. beam size during the process. This leveling scheme has been successfully tested and experimentally demonstrated during the LHC machine development program in 2015.
