The LHCf experiment will be installed in 2007 on the LHC collider, 140 m away from one of the interaction points (probably IP1), to precisely measure the pion production cross section at a very small angle through the measurement of the photons produced in the neutral pion decay. This measurement is crucial for the simulation of the showers induced in the atmosphere by very high energy cosmic rays; the 14 TeV energy available in the center of mass frame corresponds in fact to an equivalent energy of 10^17 eV in the laboratory system. The talk will focus on the proposed experiment and on the physics results that we expect from it.
