Abstract: The LHCf experiment has been designed to measure the very forward production of photons and neutral hadrons produced in proton-protoninteraction at LHC. These measurements are of essential importance to calibrate the nuclear interaction models used in the Monte Carlo codeof air showers, which are used to extract the energy spectra of incoming cosmic rays. Thanks to the unprecedented energy of LHC, LHCf willprovide a calibration of nuclear interaction models with real data up to energies relevant to test the most debated region of the cosmic rayenergy spectra.
