Abstract
We study the theoretical accuracy of various methods that have been propose d to measure the luminosity of the LHC pp collider, as well as for Run II o f the Tevatron p (p) over bar collider. In particular we consider methods b ased on (i) the total and forward elastic data, (ii) lepton-pair production and (iii) W and Z production.
