Abstract
The energy flow created in pp collisions at √s =
7 TeV is studied within the pseudorapidity range 1.9 <η<
4.9 with data collected by the LHCb experiment. The measurements
are performed for inclusive minimum-bias interactions,
hard scattering processes and events with an enhanced
or suppressed diffractive contribution. The results
are compared to predictions given by PYTHIA-based and
cosmic-ray event generators, which provide different models
of soft hadronic interactions.
