Abstract

In this paper we discuss the luminosity determination at the Tevatron. We discuss luminosity measurements by the machine as well as by using the luminosity detectors of the CDF and D0 experiments. We discuss the uncertainties of the measurements, the effort to maximize the initial and integrated luminosity, the challenges and the lessons learned.
