Run details:

$pp$ QCD interactions at 8 TeV.

The pseudorapidity density of charged particles $\mathrm{d}N_\mathrm{ch}/\mathrm{d}\eta$ is measured by the TOTEM experiment in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV within the ranges $3.9 < \eta < 4.7$ and $-6.95 < \eta < -6.9$. Data were collected in a low intensity LHC run with collisions occurring at a distance of 11.25\,m from the nominal interaction point. The data sample is expected to include 96--97\% of the inelastic proton--proton interactions. The measurement reported here considers charged particles with $p_T > 0$ MeV/$c$, produced in inelastic interactions with at least one charged particle in $-7 < \eta < -6$ or $3.7 < \eta < 4.8$. The $\mathrm{d}N_\mathrm{ch}/\mathrm{d}\eta$ has been found to decrease with $|\eta|$, from $5.11 \pm 0.73$ at $\eta = 3.95$ to $1.81 \pm 0.56$ at $\eta = -6.925$.
