A novel method for determining the absolute luminosity in a colliding-beam experiment at circular accelerators is discussed. It uses vertex reconstruction of beam-gas interaction to determine the beam shapes and beams overlap. This method could be applied (for example) at the main LHC experiments without modification of their detectors..
